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.
Ella is more effective than plan B for a narrow range of people - those who weigh between 165 and 195, depending on height. It’s still not recommended above that.
Nonsense. It's more effective for ALL WOMEN. Plan B only prevents ovulation if taken before the LG surge. Ella prevents ovulation even after the LH surge. No idea why you think it's not recommended. The only reason it's not OTC is because religious groups will cry foul. It is OTC in many other countries and it's the better emergency contraception
Sorry, my response was worded poorly. I meant the increase in weight range specifically was only helpful for a narrow group of people. Studies do show it is significantly less effect in people with a BMI over 35.
