Men who got vasectomies share why they chose to do it — including not wanting children and wanting to relieve their partners from birth control
  • Vasectomies are a form of birth control.

  • About 5% of married American men have them.

  • Three men talked to us about their experience getting a hair cut.

There were some bad experiences at home when Dylan was a child. He blames it on the fact that he was born to people who didn't want to have a child. As an adult, he decided not to have biological kids.

The best thing for me was to not procreate because there was no way to ask someone who wasn't yet exist if they wanted to face the mental and societal burdens I face each day.

He needed to take control of his reproductive health because his partner was having trouble with birth control.

He said it was his responsibility to control that aspect of himself because he could get her pregnant.

Almost half a million men get a vasectomy each year, and that's because Titus got one. He thinks more men should do the same. He conveyed that message through a song, the best way he knew how.

He said that politicians never push for vasectomies, only control of women's bodies. While most of us can't guarantee that our vote or voice will be heard on a governmental level, I can easily call a urologist and schedule my vasectomy.

I already had 2 kids and didn't want to be outnumbered

By the time John got his vasectomy, he was already a dad. After having two sons before he was 21, he and his wife decided it was time to consider more serious birth control.

He said that two kids for two parents is a sane balance.

He said that he didn't think twice because his insurance covered the procedure and he had a $10 copay. If they ever changed their minds about adding to their family, he could have his vasectomy reversed.

The success rate drops with time as regrowth works in 75% to 60% of cases within 10 years.

He said that he was good with two boys for the foreseeable future. Whether in a relationship or not, as a heterosexual man the risk of getting a partner pregnant was always a looming factor, and out of all the birth-control options out there, a vasectomy is the way to go.

Faber encourages more men to have vasectomies now that the case could be decided soon. The procedures pale in comparison to what women have to deal with when it comes to birth control, abortion, and contraceptives. After his vasectomy, Faber went out for a meal.

He said that everyone deserves a right to have control over their own bodies.

Kids wouldn't fit into my lifestyle

Allyn knew he didn't want kids. He didn't want to undergo a medical procedure that he didn't need to survive. Over time, that changed as well. He paid $600 out of pocket to have a hair cut ten years ago.

He said that he wished he had done it years ago when he was working a regular job with insurance.

He said the procedure was easy. He was confused when he heard a heterosexual couple talk about which one of them would be sterilized.

If you know you don't want more, then this doesn't seem like a conversation you should have.

  • Providers said they would stop performing abortions as soon as the governor signs the bill, which is the latest example of the GOP's push to restrict access to what has been a constitutional right for nearly a half century. Oklahoma has already passed a half-dozen anti-abortion measures this year, and while abortion providers across the country are bracing for the possibility that the U.S. Supreme Court might further restrict the practice, that has especially been the case in Oklahoma and Texas. Two of Oklahoma's four abortion clinics already stopped providing abortions after the governor signed a six-week ban, and an attorney for the two other independent clinics said Thursday they will no longer offer services once the bill is signed.
