Hi,
Yes, tubectomy is a safe contraceptive method so is vasectomy if you want the alternative of the same kind, even vasectomy is easier and safer.
But keep in mind it is a permanent contraceptive as your wife may have almost next 5-7 years of fertility she will be not able to make children though there is no sexual issue at all.
There are many methods of contraceptives it is up to you which one you select.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Muzaffer Hussain Parray,
