vaginapagina | A question about tubals

Are there women here who have had their tubes "tied" -- especially women under 30?

If so, did you have difficulty finding a doctor who would perform the operation for you? My sister just had it done last month, and I went with her. She's in her late 30s and didn't run into any obstacles, but I remember when she was in her mid 20s she couldn't find a doctor to agree to do the proceedure.

I just feel it's time. My boyfriend and I have talked about him having a vasectomy. He wants to do it, and it makes more sense since the proceedure is less invasive for men ... but I also know that he's terrified of andy kind of surgery, and I don't feel like waiting any longer.

Any imput on what I should expect or suggestions would be appreciated. [I also plan on posting this at
