possibilitygirl4 asked: I can't do your survey, but my mom had a tubal ligation which reversed itself and within the next few months she got pregnant with my little sister. Thought that was an interesting story to share, and I noticed that procedure wasn't on your list. Just goes to show sterilization doesn't always work. =P

Yeah, I know that tubal ligation can sometimes reverse itself (some of the procedures I listed were tubal ligation, just it can be done various ways). If anyone has any sterilization stories feel free to share! My mom had a complete hysterectomy (they took her ovaries and randomly her appendix too) after I was born. It threw her into early menopause and wasn’t fun for her at all. She had a second menopause around the age menopause is supposed to hit although it wasn’t as bad as her first one.
