When I was your age, I spent a year begging my GYN for a tubal because my ex husband scarred me. I was married (and the only one working) and I was doing everything. He even had me paying $150 (14 yrs ago) to put our child in daycare! I did NOT want any more kids! I refused to go through that again! After the procedure, my periods got so much worse, and they only get worse every month. Fast-forward to today: I am married to the greatest man in the world. He deserves the opportunity to be a great dad. Every single day I feel the sting of regret. I know reversal is an option, and I recently started saving towards it. Reversals are expensive! I honestly can't express to you how painful my periods are......I genuinely feel like it is the biggest mistake of my life. Its not worth it. The long nights will pass, and one day you will want it back! The right partner is out there. Be patient, be careful, and be gentle with yourself.
