It might take time but many women find that the ring or IUDs are good stopgaps until you can find that magic doc.
Very much agreed.
OP, I'm 25, single, and childless. I've been actively seeking a doc who will sterilize me since I was 21 or 22, and it's just not happening.
However, I did find health care providers who were more than willing to prescribe Nuva Ring -- which is kind of nice 'cause you only have to remember it once a month -- and IUDs -- which last 5 or 10 years depending on the type. It still wasn't exactly what I wanted, but those options were definitely a step in the right direction.
