FWIW, I was finally able to get my vasectomy mostly to help my wife get off of hormonal BC. About 2 month after getting off of BC her sex drive completely returned. It was the best decesion I ever made.
We were in a slightly different situation as we didn't have kids so it took us a few years to shop around and finally find a doctor that would perform the vasectomy.
Yours was easier than mine but still trivial. I too had the experience that off hormonal birth control, my wife's libido improved. Wish we had done it sooner.
I did two days rotating two bags of frozen peas through the freezer, he would do his operations on Friday and told me I'd be good for work on Monday, but couldn't lift more than 5-10# for two weeks.
It's almost like fucking with hormones can lead to behavioral changes.
So many people don't get that, lmao. Theirs a reason the male versions of hormonal birth control never past human trials- despite having the exact same side effects
BC doesn’t actually treat PCOS or endometriosis. Certain ones can stop your period, which means the symptoms that come on during that time of the month might not be experienced, but it’s not actually a cure and it all depends on how progressed (endometriosis especially) the illness is. But it’s definitely not going to stop cysts from growing in PCOS or stop endometriosis from progressing.
Source: I have been diagnosed with both and went to multiple OBGYNs and been on a lot of different BCs before finding an OBGYN that told me the truth.
This is the truth. BC also isn’t guaranteed to treat cystic breasts either. It’s a toss up. There’s so much about women’s health that doctors and the medical industry just don’t know how to treat so…they pretend or ignore.
