Yes, I still have my testicles, they only sealed the tubes that the sperm itself travels along, it was a vasectomy, not a neutering.


lol. I know thaaaat.

Thankyou for answering my questions I know they probably came off as pretty ignorant.

If you do PM her, will you PM me too? I'm trying to find a good birth control unit, but might have to resort to bf getting a vasectomy. (Since the ******** doctors are biased beyond view when it comes to... the girl version, I don't know the name. XD)


They may have a point. I asked my women's studies teacher about this and she told me it was far more dangerous for women than men and according to one website*, it increases your chances of tubal pregnancies and those can trigger early menopause. Of course surgical procedures are improving all the time so hopefully they'll be better soon.

there is that, there is also the the fact that a vasectomy is done under local anesthetic while tubal ligation is done under a general anesthetic. Vasectomies also take less time and money, both for the procedure and recovery.

Oh wow, I never knew that part. I just knew that they wouldn't give it to you unless you had kids, which is kind of a slap in the face to child free people.

not entirely true, once again. Several factors are involved, including the Dr themselves, your age, mental state, relationship status, ect.

I have never had a child, 27, sane (as far as they could tell), and in a stable relationship. If I had gone to them at 21, they might have tried to talk me out of it.

Wow... all the sideeffects just make me want to stick to a condom and make me want to get my tubes tied later.
