Reddit Testimonial (r/childfree)

Bilateral salpingectomy 27, partnered, childfree, queer. Approved a bisalp at my second appointment. I originally came in for pelvic pain and she recommended a laparoscopy to check for endometriosis. Because the recovery period for that is only a week and my work doesn’t do short term disability for anything under 2 weeks, I asked if we could do a bisalp at the same time. She was all for it! Asked the required questions to make sure I knew it was permanent, and within minutes approved it and told me to expect a call to schedule–they scheduled about 3 months out. No issues with BCBS insurance and U of M doesn’t expect payment up front. At the surgery all the medical professionals were highly professional and I didn’t get any comments on my choice. I was shocked at how easy the experience was.
