      Some people are really averse to medical procedures, we shouldn’t judge others for their bodily autonomy.

      That said, I did similar to you. My wife has some ovarian cysts and was warned that a tubal ligation would likely cause more and then she’d probably have to have surgery, maybe even an oophorectomy.

      I had concerns about the risks of tubal ligation already but that sealed it for sure. Got snipped right after my 40th birthday.
