4. Voluntary Female Sterilization at 26: I Don't Want Kids with Rae

On today's episode, we are bringing out a woman's personal story about voluntary sterlization as a form of permenant birth control out into the open with all the nitty-gritty details. Rae (She/Her) vulnerably discloses her experience obtaining the procedure and decision making process proudly and without shame. Together we talk about what a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy surgey is, how she found the information to obtain the procedure, and what the recovery process actually looked like for her.  If you enjoyed today's podcast, then please subscribe, leave a review, or share this podcast with a friend!
