Advantages Of A Vasectomy

When I was a teen I was dead set on never getting married or having youngsters. I had been hurt by people in the past and have observed other relationships collapse even after 25 years of marriage. In the back of my mind I had hoped to meet someone who would have the ability to break down those walls. However, I was still confident that kids was not going to be something I would want.

Only a month after I got married I told my hubby that I wished to have a kid, straightaway! There was something within me that just wanted to begin a family and I recognized that I at long last changed my mind on the matter. Luckily for me he wanted kids also. At first we planned on two children. After the first child though we settled to call it quits.

After a couple of years of talking about the matter we decided to do something more irreversible to make sure that our plans didn’t alter. The alternative was between a tubal ligation and a vasectomy. Just like all men he was scared that having the surgery would somehow change his manhood!

I didn’t mind undergoing surgery - but I didn't understand why it had to automatically be me. After all I am the one who spent nine months getting huge and spent hours trying to push an eight pound baby! We sat down and weighed the differences.

If you genuinely do the research you will see the difference between a tubal ligation vs. vasectomies. The TB takes at the least a month to recover from, while the vasectomy takes a week. The TB costs $5,000 and the vasectomy $500. My husband stepped up and our fate was sealed and there have been no surprises since then!
