Reddit Testimonial (r/childfree)

I am 25F and got my procedure (bilateral salpingectomy) done in December of this year by Dr. Jonelle Samuel in Lanham, Maryland. I walked into some minor pushback in the form of usual questions (I understand this is permanent, if a partner wanted kids what would I do, if I changed my mind what would my options be). However after I answered the questions she booked me for 2 weeks later. She says she does the procedure on patients 21+ so long as it’s clear they understand what they’re doing and are educated on their options.
