Selective tubal occlusion procedure: (The acronym for selective tubal occlusion procedure is STOP.) A nonsurgical form of permanent birth control in which a physician inserts a 4-centimeter (1.6 inch ) long metal coil into each one of a woman's two fallopian tubes via a scope passed through the cervix into the uterus and thence into the openings of the fallopian tubes. Over the next few months, tissue grows over the coil to form a plug that prevents fertilized eggs from traveling from the ovaries to the uterus.

STOP takes 15 to 30 minutes, can be done in a doctor's office, and usually requires only a local anesthetic . During a 3-month period after the coils are inserted, women must use other forms of birth control until their physician verifies by x-ray that the fallopian tubes are completely blocked.

STOP is permanent (not reversible) and is designed as an alternative to surgical sterilization which requires general anesthesia and an incision . About 6% of women who have had STOP have side effects , mainly due to improper placement of the coils.

As of November, 2000, STOP was experimental and had not yet been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ).
