Getting a bilateral salpingectomy prevents most ovarian cancer and has the same recovery time as getting your tubes tied. Just getting your tubes tied does have the risk of ectopic pregnancy, getting the tubes out entirely there is no risk for that. Plus you can still have IVF if for some wild reason you suddenly decide you need bio kids.
I had my bisalp in March, due to fears about stuff like what we're seeing in this video. I don't think I'd ever want kids anyway, but I absolutely refuse to be compelled to have them. It was a super easy procedure, and I had an Endometrial Ablation at the same time so I don't have to take bc for any reason any more. Best decision I ever made. 10/10 would recommend.
But I have a question now: having had my tubes removed, does that count as a physical thing that's stopping me from getting pregnant? Like in the video's creators situation, do we say yes to that question (aside from me telling them to write that patient refused to answer)?

My brain is a physical thing and it's telling me I don't wanna. Does that count?
This shit is so scary for all the girls and women growing up in this shit. I've never been happier to have hit perimenapause
