I paid £400 for the snip

Why? "£" suggests you're in the UK. It's free in the UK, unless you don't want to wait a few months.

Wow she's the .1% of the .1%. When it does fail the vast majority of pregnancies are non-viable ectopic. So your nephew really beat the odds

It would make your burps more smelly.

There's nothing like empirical evidence I would say. Go ahead and try and then please report back.

It has strings attached to it so they might get poopy

I think you're statistically 60% of the way there?

Yeah same here and feel similarly, still contributing, just less.

Me and my exes first wife had 3 kids with him, so I feel like we're 3 for 3, just replacement population. No growth.

Unlimited creampies on offer and you're still talking about oral!?

Yes! They thin out the lining so much that you either have very light or no periods at all. I went through going through super+ tampons in an hour to literally nothing at all (nothing at all, nothing at ALL!)

Love my stupid sexy IUD!

Side note, I'm fascinated by your username. Are you a dragon with a sour disposition? Or more like a Sour Patch Dragon? Or a dragon who likes to eat sour patch kids? All three?

Did you ever feel the urge to have a second one around the time your first became 2 ? According to my colleagues it's super common

Yeah, it would be nice if vasectomies stopped periods.

I'm also really thankful I can't get pregnant. Been unable to my whole life.

Ha, now that is a fun predicament.

I have a friend that had a daughter a few years back, he regretted it from day 1 as he basically lost his old life and wasn't a fan of his new one. He has hated it at worst, tolerated it at best for the last few years. And yet, he has said to me "I think I am going insane, I hate ever moment of this... so why do I want another kid?!"

A lot of close friends with kids all say the same thing, they love their kids and they take great care of them, but if they knew then what they know now and could go back in time, they would make sure it would never happen.

One couple had their third about 2 years back and made sure that they would not have a forth because they were already financial strained. About 6 months after their third was born we were out and the mother turn to the father and says "I really want a forth now!" a brief pause then "And that is why past me was smart because past me stopped me from doing that."

Biology is gonna do its thing.

I have wondered if "breeding kink" is really a kink in the way we usually use the term or it is just our animal instincts compelling us to reproduce which some people supress better than others.

My partner had theirs replaced yesterday. It's the second time I've sat by them while it was done, and my god, you uterus-owners pay the iron price for that shit. And we thank you all for it.

NO! they will just get rid of education for lower class, and restore the birthrate lmao. This is not how we supposed to get rid of exploiters.

It's a strange anti-human attitude. We should just go extinct as a species to own the bourgeoisie. I mean, the bourgeoisie needs workers like us, so by that logic, why not just all kill ourselves now to own the bourgeoisie, who will then have no workers left? It's just such a freaking weird mindset I don't get how there are 10 people who agree with you.

*conditions apply

(Depending on how aggressive the new data center builds are, we might run out of water in my parents' lifetimes, and I'm in my 40s)

IUDs work mechanically by inhibiting implantation of the zygote in the womb.¹ Contrast, the pill, which prevents contraception with hormones. This means your mood cycle will change less with IUDs

Note that some IUDs include a hormone component. Discuss with your doctor what is your best choice.

This also means complications with IUDs are also mechanical, most commonly unintended eviction. In prior eras, sone IUDS could scrape or puncture the uterus, but their design is vastly improved so its extremely rare.

¹ Yes, this freaks out the anti-abortion-access and anti-contraception-access crowds since they assert personhood at conception. To that, I offer this statistic from the Guttmacher Institute: 75% of all conceptions fail to result in live birth. By far the majority of them are due to failure to implant. Selection is intrinsic to the human reproductive process.

This also means the most populous place in the Christian Cinematic Universe is the Limbo of the innocents, on the fringe of Hell, at 300 billion souls, most of whom never breathed air. Unless Limbo is not cannon, in which case they go to the Hell of the Damned totalling 400 billion souls. Its awkward.

My partner experiences plenty of sex drive with one.

But the first period after she got it lasted weeks.

Then periods became very light. Which was the main draw, to reduce period pain in her case.

It killed my wife’s sex drive. She had it in for about 7 years and I didn’t get sex once in that time. She had to get it out after developing breast cancer and within a month we were having sex again.

Til you don't get periods with IUD. Does it just stop? Does the iud somehow stop the cycle?
