Because women commonly do not undergo a requested sterilization after vaginal deliveries, antepartum counseling should include alternate contraception choices. Documented consent that fulfills all federally mandated criteria remains the most common barrier to requested sterilization after vaginal delivery; providers and policymakers should work together to help unburden women from this mandate.
