Because BC is not 100% effective. Also don't have to worry about missing pills. Some people such as myself can not take BC for medical reasons, and when I choose that I am done having kids, (I only have one right now) then I will probably get my tubes tied. All of the hormones in birth control can wreak havoc on a womans body and mind.

Because maybe some people are just done having kids and they dont want any room for errors....so why take the risk of missing birth control and getting pregnant when you can have your tubes tied and not have to worry about the "oh no I forgot to take my birth control...I hope Im not pregnant..."

Well I've been on birth control and i loved it but my man has one kid from someone else and he don't want to have kids with me, So that's the only reason why I'm getting my tubes tied. I don't know if that answerd your question. I tried but if your man is not like that then you should stick to birth control. It did work great for me.

Why in the world would you use birth control as in pills, and all the problems they've had through the years, over having your tubes tied, and now, it can be reversed and, you don't have to suffer the problems of the pills.

I'll give you two reasons... Matthew and Ryan. Two of my four children were conceived while I was diligently using birth control. After having my fourth child, who was planned, I decided to make it final and have my tubes tied. I love ALL of my children for the awesome people they are but my husband and I wanted to have control over how large our family got and we weren't able to guarantee that with birth control. Now we're able to enjoy the family we've created and also a healthy sex life without having to worry about unknowns.

I am preg with my 3rd child and do NOT want anymore kids so I am getting my tubes tied when i deliver. I have been on birth control for 10 years and am SOOOO ready to not have to worry wether i took my pill or got my shot. and am SOOOOO ready to not have to worry about wether i am preg not. If u really think about it..... it is still a type of birth control, but a perminant one. If u think it is wrong to get ur tubes tied to not have kids then why do u think its ok to be on the pill for the rest of ur life not to have kids? all getting ur tubes tied does is keep woman who are done with wanting kids a way not to have to have them like the pill and other birth controls do for woman who may want one sooner or later. now i can have sex 24\7 with my husband and not have to worry.

All birth control pills use hormones that have side effects that can hurt your body. Many men don't like to use condoms. If you don't want any kids and you don't want to use hormone filled birth control then you can get your tubes tied.
I'm thinking about getting this done but I'd like one more child first.

It's the most cost-effective means of birth control over time, if you don't want any more kids. Think about it: $10-$35 a month for the pill, patch, shots, or Nuvaring; $200 (or sometimes free if your insurance covers it) every 5 yrs for an IUD; $12 and up a month for condoms, sponges, and/or spermicides... Over a reproductive life of about 20 yrs, it adds up...

Its a personal choice. Its long term and effective. Some people forget to take pills or put on the patch. I have an IUD and it was less invasive that surgery for tubal litigation. Now I have 5 years of guarantee that I will not have any babies.
I don't criticize any form of b.c. because of the outrageous world population.

Are you kidding me?????
If you're sure you don't want any more kids why wouldn't you? Birth control is a pain in the butt!
No more pills to take (and the side effects, doctors visits that go with them)....no more condoms (if you're in a safe.....I've been with my husband for 12 years)....No more foam or whatever else..
You can do it when you want...no more oops out of condoms...no more trips to the pharmacy....
If you're sure you don't want anymore GO FOR IT! I am! I'd have them tie my tubes when I have my daughter, but it is a Catholic hospital and they won't!
