Reddit Testimonial (r/childfree)

has been my OBGYN for the last 6 years. I brought up the idea of sterilization at my first visit with her, at the age of 26, and there were no bingos, just well worded questions to make sure I understood what I was asking for, knew the alternative birth control options, and that I was asking of my own free will. For financial, time, and career reasons, I wasn’t ready for the procedure right away, but she followed up with me every year to see where my head was at. And each time I said I still wanted to be sterilized once my career was in a place where I had good health benefits and sick leave allowance. That all finally came together at the age of 33.
