Tubal ligation press?
My question is: How should I approach the doctor to better my probability of having him or her consent? I'm of nouns mind and never want children; how can I convince the doctor of this?
Answers: Sadly, society is still inherently sexist when it comes to reproductive choices.
I can, right now, choose to stir out and have two or three kids and might be commended for it.
But wanting to tie my tubes? I'm pat on the head and told "hang about until you're older, you'll probably loose change your mind."
I will tell you right presently that it is very difficult to acquire a tubal ligation under the age of 25. But I do know of women (mostly spoke beside them online) who have be sterilized at age 20/21.
There actually are no *legal* requirements for a tubal ligation excluding you being the age of consent (18) to sign a contract.
Most of what you hear ("must be 25 and enjoy 2 kids" or "must be 30 and have 3 kids") are arbitrary milestones made up by the medical practitioners.
I would suggest...you look up anything and everything on adjectives birth control and sterilization procedures. List the pros and the cons. Find statistics on women under 30 who own no children and are sterilized -- they actually hold the lowest rate of regret. (It's women under 30 who enjoy one or more children and then a tubal who are more plausible to regret their sterilization.)
Sit down with your doctor and discuss the pros and cons of respectively birth control calmly and academically. Tell her why you feel the passageway you do. Tell her you are as sure as anyone can ever be when it comes to reproductive choices. If it comes to it, as her "if I came within here today telling you I looked-for to conceive a child, what would you say to me?"
Tell your doctor to receive a note surrounded by your medical chart. Every time you visit your doctor notify them again that you want a tubal and ask them to put a note surrounded by your chart. Build a history. They'll have a harder time cast your desires in doubt if you've be calm and consistent throughout the time you've be with them.
At your age I really dont have an idea that the doctor will do it unless theres some health common sense. You can't.
Statistically speaking, women who get BTL past the age of 35 are likely to want to enjoy a post-procedure baby at most minuscule 50% of the time. The percentage goes up the nearer the procedure is done.
Doctors KNOW about this bizarre symbiosis between make happen and effect, and also know that to reverse the procedure is costly, painful, and solitary about 40% successful (at best).
So base on these facts (and they ARE facts), you are going to be hard pressed to find a doctor who would be prepared to even discuss this issue with you up to that time you turn 25.
I would recommend using REALLY good contraceptive system for the next 6 years or so, THEN approach the medical community again, should you still be aware of the same opening.
In my women's studies classes we discussed this highly controversial topic and we read a covering study about a woman who required it done at 20, but could not find a doctor who would do it until she was 28. She looked and looked for 8 years until someone would do it. She really never considered necessary children, and still didn't regret her decision surrounded by her 40's.
I commend you for making your own decsions about your body. People are continuously going to try to communicate you that you'll change your mind when you catch older, that your biological clock will start ticking, that you'd regret it if you did it, and etc. Just remember that you know yourself better than anyone contained by the world knows you.
That anyone said, unfortunately, I don't mull over that there is much you can voice to a doctor to convince them. Many of them are older (and men) and devise that they know what's best for your life. (I grasp they know bodies in common better than us, but they don't know absolutely what is best for respectively individual person's life.) All that individual said, however, they also have the right to solely perform a procedure they agree beside, especially in this baggage, where if someone did alteration her mind, they could be sued (by someone claiming that she wasn't given all the information, or what hold you.)
It's probably just going to whip a lot of looking and abundantly of time, like that armour I mentioned above. Good luck.
And in response to your spare details: Do I think society is a bit sexist? Ha...there's an understatement for ya :)
You probably won't ever be capable of convince a doctor to give you a tubal. I know you read out you are of sound mind presently, but you are only 19 years of age. We as women evolve constantly. The party I thought I was at 19 have changed so many times since later. I am 34 now and through time and experiences things in recent times change. My push for to you would be to talk to your doctor roughly speaking differnt types of birth control. Find the type that fits you best. And with age and readiness if a tubal is still what you want proceed at that time. When I was 19 I didnt want kids any.at all.Then when I be in a committed relationship for a few years I started really really wanting one when I be 24. You are too young I ponder to fully decide and possibly you should get an IUD or something smaller number permanent for awhile..Tubal ligation isnt even 100% potent anymore after the first few years...
I don't think you can.. doctors enjoy a mind of their own and they seldom budge. I lost twins back within 06 due to a lethal brain defect. This condition (hydranencephaly) has no set cause and beside me they couldn't be for certain if it would take place again. I've gotten nothing from doctors but indistinguishable answers... and even docs can't agree with one another. Out of the creeps and frustration, I begged my doc to sterilize me. First he said they would, after he decided not to. He said it be a poor decision because I be too young (27 at the time) and I be doing it out of grieving. Now I'm pregnant again (just one this time) and I've been extremely depressed. I didn't want another child after what I've been through. Had I found out sooner I would enjoy terminated. Unfortunately there is nil I can do now and I enjoy considered putting the baby up for adoption... I a short time ago can't handle it.
More than credible your doc will suggest an IUD such as the Mirena. I would try it out. then "pretend" to amend your mind and demand a tubal. I want I would have taken this approach.. next at least I wouldn't be pregnant right immediately. I really regret this baby.. I really regret not getting a tubal. I know that population do change from 19 to when they're elder. But does that mean you'll revise how you feel in the order of this? Who knows! Like the culture said above, I'm not sure there is much you can say aloud to convince someone to do it.
i agree with you mainly subject i am 20 now and want to bring one done too but i have be told by every one that they wont do it. but is it legal to not do the procedure when the patiant asks for it is my interview.
