If you want a near-permanent way to avoid pregnancies there's already a way for that. The many people you know that would love to be permanently infertile can get what they want in a matter of minutes, in a proven/well-known way.

> The many people you know that would love to be permanently infertile can get what they want in a matter of minutes, in a proven/well-known way. Are you sure about that? As far as I know nearly all urologists in the US will refuse to perform a vasectomy on a childless man, especially if they're in their 20s and/or unmarried.

  Not from the US and I did the procedure in my thirties, married, with two kids. But the doctor didn't ask about any of this (he obviously knew my age). I just had to sign that I was lectured about the potential risks and consequences - similar to the preparations for any medical operation really. And I had to agree on the price, since this (obviously?) isn't covered by basic health care here.. ;) So.. No idea. My doctor didn't know about my marriage or kids though.

    Interesting, what country? It is covered by basic health care in Canada.

      Germany. You've to pay here, was around 400 Euro in total.

  Then presumably they'd have the same problems with giving this injection as a means of becoming permanently infertile.
