Daniel, 26, sterilization
You don’t have the worry of an unexpected pregnancy.
Daniel has a son who means the world to him.
Focusing exclusively on his one child felt right for him, so he opted for a vasectomy. That way, he’d never have to worry about broken condoms, missed pills, or the life-changing impact of an unplanned pregnancy.
He found the procedure to be surprisingly quick and easy. Afterwards, his doctor made sure that his sperm count was zero and then he was free to enjoy birth control-free sex with his girlfriend without any fear of getting her pregnant.
