I wish the US had some of the options for male sterilization/contraception that are available in India. I've asked my doctor for years about some of the options available in other countries and am always given a blank stare of ignorance.
- mitigating 5y agoWhat about vasectomies? They seem to be widely known
- mywittyname 5y agoThese can be difficult to get for younger, childless men. Even younger men (<40) with children receive push back from physicians in getting the procedure because it can be difficult to reverse.
- CountDrewku 5y agoThen you can assume alternatives would also be difficult to get approval for. I can't imagine some chemical option would be preferable to a physical disconnection anyway.
- beeboop 5y agoI think the point is other options (vasogel or something for example) are easily reversed and are non-surgical
- dougmwne 5y agoWhat options are you talking about? I am only aware of vasectomies.

- carapace 5y agoI feel more people should know about "heat-based contraception" for men. Literally, taking very hot baths can cause temporary reversible sterility. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-based_contraception https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-based_contraception
