Who has had or wants a tubal ligation reversal?!
Question: I'm 24, and just had my tubes tied. I'm happily married, and have no kids, and I never wanted them. My doctor was hesitant to do it because he says young people are likely to change their minds. I told him that my research shows (my research being scientific journal articles, books and such) that women who change their minds were young, yes. But,1. they usually already have had children (indicating a desire to have them already), 2. were in a bad relationship at the time, or 3. Are now in a new relationship with someone who wants their own kids.
So, just to round out my research, I thought I'd do a poll. If you have had a tubal reversal or or seeking one, please answer the follwing. Thanks:)
1. How old were you when you got it done?
2. How old are you now?
3. Why did you feel you wanted your tubes tied?
4. Why now are you changing your mind?
Thanks again:)
