A TikTok influencer known as @themodernmidwife, Caitlyn, just shared a frustrating experience at her husband’s primary care clinic. In a video that has racked up 2.4 million views, Caitlyn detailed how a nurse and a healthcare provider actively discouraged him from getting a vasectomy, even going so far as to suggest that she should undergo a tubal ligation instead.
Caitlyn explained that after having their fourth child just four months ago, she and her husband decided they were done growing their family. She had already endured multiple vaginal births, an epidural headache, mastitis, and postpartum depression. So, the couple agreed that he would take on the responsibility of sterilization, as female sterilization is significantly more complicated, with higher risks.
