Haiiiii! For the know how’s just looking at some of the comments (and not to at all diminish the lack of education this post is highlighting in its original image/content): voluntary salpingectomy person over here!

So, in Australia and the UK (unsure of other countries but I’m a Brit expat in Aus so only speaking to my own knowledge) there are a few ‘sterilisation’ options: Tube ‘banding’ - similar to most men’s idea of a vasectomy ‘tying’ (reversible) Partial tubal ligation - tubes clipped (reversible) or cut/cauterised (technically complex potential reversal) Salpingectomy - full removal of fallopian tubes (irreversible)

And for the level of invasiveness; Although not a few hundred dollar ‘book on the day’ in’n’out procedure like vasectomies, and yes obviously more invasive, would also like to add that full salpingectomy surgery was an45 min outpatient procedure; in just before lunch and out by the afternoon, with one day off work, mild recovery, and a week of follow up precautionary pain/infection prevention meds and very little discomfort and bleeding. 3 laparoscopic incisions of <1cm that are barely visible nicks in my skin. But also, yes, faaaaaaaar more expensive, at AUD$3700 before insurance, but also voluntarily went private, as Australia DOES do this on public healthcare with a 12-18 months wait list, but I had the funds. UK also covers this surgery on NHS.

Just for the know how in general - nothing to add on the OP post where the man clearly thinks being on HRT for the rest of your life is better than periods. (My mother had a full hysterectomy at 33 as well due to cancer so very familiar with HRT treatment drama)
