I can't say that I really know anything about the procedure, but if we are not careful, our awsome healthcare system will go to crap.
Nope... The debate is who we want to pay for it... not how good it is. America has the best healthcare in the world!Surely this is a joke?

Then again surgery is not primarily about thrilling the doctor.I'm sure doctors aren't thrilled at the idea of doing an irreversible procedure on a patient who is at least somewhat likely to change her mind later.
I mean, tying the tubes of a young woman is an awkward procedure for a doctor, and I don't even mean medically. A lot of women I know didn't want kids in their early 20's. They were totally opposed to the idea. Then suddenly, the woke up one morning and BAM they wanted a baby. I'm sure doctors aren't thrilled at the idea of doing an irreversible procedure on a patient who is at least somewhat likely to change her mind later.
Yeah, adult women can't be trusted to make a decision about her own future. they should have to take birth control pills, use a diaphragm or an
IUD or SOMETHING for at least 15 years before they are allowed to make a decision like not wanting kids, they should really really really have to prove they are serious before a doctor agrees that she MEANS it.
I personally would like to get a hysterectomy, just because I hate having periods (especially since I get horrendous cramps and nausea during the first few days of my period), yet I also don't want to take synthetic hormones (whether those hormones are in BC pills, an IUD, the Nuva Ring, or Depo shots). Yet no doctor would even think of performing a hysterectomy on me, a 21-year-old woman, even though I know I don't want to ever be pregnant and I know that I won't end up regretting my hysterectomy. It's horribly unfair. So I totally agree with you, ElsanRandiMom.
If a woman can have saline implants in her breasts, and have her cellulite suctioned out, and have her nose changed by surgery... why can she not (in most cases) elect to have a tubal ligation to prevent having any children, or after she's had children, choose to have a hysterectomy? How vastly different are these things? Why the ability to alter one and not the other? I guess my question is, is it ethical for a physician to say "yes, I'll change your entire face with multiple surgeries" but not say "yes, I will help you live your life the way you want in the only almost 100% certain way"...??? Personally, I think it's strange they make a distinction as they are all "non-essential" when in these contexts.
there are some women without problems in that particular area (such as cancer or polyps or something) that have psychological issues intensified by their hormones... yet still cannot have this procedure... it just seems strange that there is such a double standard here when men can get the snip snip whenever
Surgeons will perform a hysterectomy if there is a compelling medical reason to do so. They will pretty much do a tubal ligation on demand, just like a vasectomy.there are some women without problems in that particular area (such as cancer or polyps or something) that have psychological issues intensified by their hormones... yet still cannot have this procedure... it just seems strange that there is such a double standard here when men can get the snip snip whenever
