This guy fucks
Yup this is why I got my tubes tied. Too much anxiety just relying on the pill!
Oh man it was a nightmare finding someone who would sterilize me. I was 24 when I started seriously looking, and I can't tell you how many doctors told me I'd change my mind about not wanting kids (insert huuuge eyeroll here), and one doctor even said that he thought my boyfriend was forcing me into it and that I didn't understand how permanent it was. Thankfully I did finally find someone to take me seriously but man, what a pain in the ass!
Yep - back in the day the LiveJournal childfree comm had a similar list which was really helpful!
Is the annual test really necessary?
If you want to be 100% Sure then yes.
Most people are fine with being 98% sure though.
Okay, thanks.
Got my procedure scheduled in two weeks, so I am hoping it's a one and done thing
I worked with a guy that had to go in three times but I think he was no following post operation care. You are supposed to abstain for a few days while it heals.
When I got my vasectomy it was no needle, no scalpel. They make a small hole then pull the vas deferens out cut and tie it to itself then do the other, all with pain numbing spray. Was 5 minutes not including the ball shaving. I went in to work that night, with an ice pack on my balls all night but barely had any issues. Some extra swelling happened but I went back for an injection of anti inflammatory and it went away.
Yes, if you fuck once annually
Yeah, I'm 5 years in and stopped getting tested.
It was a fantastic purchase though!!!
What sort of frequency are we talking about? 500 times a year? or more like 200 times a year?
No this is completely inaccurate and wrong...there's a 33% risk of a condom failing. You'd still have to time it with ovulation of the person you're boinking for there to be a risk of pregnancy. And even then, having sex in the most optimal period isn't even a guarantee of pregnancy, far from it.
