The kids know how to get what they want.. If I gave them some treats, they would ask for more and say, “Last na, Mommy.” then after a while would say, “Sobra Last na, Mommy” and so on using all the superlative they can think of.
When it comes to having kids, some couples also use this technique and I had to admit, we used to say that too. Last na to.. sobra last na.. promise last na talaga.. but we end up with four kids. For those who are not comfortable with using any birth control method, why don’t you try permanent birth control method so we can finally say, Last na talaga sobra!
Permanent Birth Control Method is for women who no longer want to have kids, in short, Last na talaga sobrang sobra!
There are two methods of sterilizing a woman, one is non surgical and the other one is surgical. Based on my readings, the non surgical method is very quick. An anesthesia is given to the woman and with the use of tiny devices, a scar is created inside the Fallopian tube and this scar blocks the tube, which of course prevents the egg cell and sperm cell from meeting.
The other method of sterilization is the surgical method and this was discussed to me by my OB Gyne. This is called Tubal Ligation and this is one of the most effective permanent birth control as it makes women sterile, permanently. Although there are cases that the ligation can be reversed, getting pregnant again is very slim and can lead to complication (such as ectopic pregnancy).
My OB Gyne said that the procedure is not painful at all but this one is considered a major operation. To be more practical, tubal ligation can be performed right after child birth (works best for CS deliveries). The recovery can be painful though, as the tubes are cut off and the uterus are contracting, somehow, the contraction is pulling the tubes and that hurts.. just imagining it now, it makes me want to throw up. The procedure is done by opening your lower abdomen (like in CS) and your reproductive organ is exposed. The Fallopian tubes are tied and cut off. The tubes is like your egg cell’s road to meet your partner’s sperm cell.. and with that cut, the meeting will never happen.
But wait! Permanent Birth Control Method is not only for women, there is also one for men.
Vasectomy. OK let me repeat it with more emphasis.. VASECTUHMEEEH.. yeah it’s like Vasec to me! And why not when this one is a lot cheaper and quicker than the two permanent birth control methods mentioned above.
This has been discussed to me by my OB Gyne too. She said that Vasectomy is a minor surgery and most often than not, the patient is treated as out patient. It’s as easy as the patient goes in, the doctor inject something, then open a small part on the reproductive area of the patient, cut a little then close it. The scar is usually covered with a band aid. Now how convenient is that huh?
Very convenient right? and why don’t we all have a vasectomy right now? You missed it no? I said this one is for men.
