There won't be a problem as long as you both agree.Can my husband get a vasectomy at age 22?
The “best answer” is not technically accurate. You both do not have to agree. He can get it all by himself and does not need your approval. That is true in all 50 states.
Report Abuse
No they do not.
However you two might want to consider whether that is a good idea in the long run. Situations change and people's minds change and vasectomies are hard to reverse.
Got mine at 25 with no kids. Planned Parenthood told me, over the phone, that they would not do it. The operator referred me to another clinic, that took my health insurance. At the counseling session, the lady asked my age, if I was married, and if I had kids. I told them the truth (25, never married, and no kids). The lady gave me a strange look, but said nothing. The counseling ended. She said they would have to let me know. I had assumed that they were gonging to refuse me.
A few days later, there was a message on my answering machine that said call in to schedule my appointment.
That was 10 years ago.
Probably not. Most doctors will insist on giving you a little lecture about it not being reversible. But a married man, with three kids should be able to argue that he's done. It certainly is the most reliable and convenient method. Good luck.
For those who are convinced that vasectomy is absolutely permament, see this website: http://www.drnudell.com/vasectomy_revers…
and scroll down to reversal sucess rates - to say nothing of other methods of getting pregnant with a man who has had a vasectomy.
Y'all are a really cynical lot. Lots of young couples stay married for their entire lives - it's a bit harsh to be telling these people they're to going to make it when you know nothing about them.
some do, that's a pretty young age, but he might be able to find a doc who would since he already has 3 children
it would prolly be wise to think and reconsider to save some sperm for ';future use';... save em in the seprm bank... i dont see why physicians would have a problem doin a vasectomy at a young age. try to consider the ';what if's'; possibilities, in the future whether you want to have another child.
Yes he can. There is no law setting an age limit. Go with him to the consultation with his doctor and reinforce the idea that you have three children and absolutely do not want any more. Good luck.
Chow!!
he is too youngf healthy and active.doing vasecdtomy for such young age is like killing him gradually.do want to make him feel impotent or feeling old at young age?do natural means of family planning.
Absolutely not. No problem at all.
Enjoy life. Eat out more often.
I've never heard of doctors not doing it at an early age...if you are married and you have enough children, then please, by all means, get it done!
Don't do that yet. You're waaaaayyyy to young to end the children. You have a whole lifetime ahead of you and anything can happen or change. 22 is barely even an adult. When you hit your 30's things change and really you may want more. Believe me. Just hang tight for 10 years or so. I'm 42 and realize every 10 years things change like hell. What happens if you get a divorce (hopefully not) and he wants kids with his new wife? What if something (heaven forbid) happens to your kids? There's a million things that might change your mind.
It depends on the individual dr. It shouldnt be a problems to find a dr. to do it.
He can---I don't think there is a minimum age but keep your options open! 22 is young but you can do if you want!
Depends on the doctor.
long as your over 18 an have the money to pay for it they usually have no problem they most likely will tell you that the surgery is not easy to reverse an etc..
Absolutely, age is generally not a factor.
Most doctors will talk in depth to the patient so he/she understands exactly why a vascectomy is needed.
Having 3 children would do it for me too.
I got mine at 21, just a few months before my 22nd birthday. I don't even have any kids.
The law says you must be 18. That is a federal law. Many people that work in clinics, and/or doctors may force their own brand of morals on their customers. In some cases your health insurance provider may also impose its own brand of rules. This could be a “roadblock” to getting the surgery. Most non-profit clinic are a little more open minded, but not all of them take insurance. The good news is the cost is only about $600 at the typical non-profit clinic.
I think doctors are a little more enlightened today. Most people have all thier children young. Also today, one in five women will choose not to have children at all. It is likley that many of them will be married to men whom have had vasectomies, in thier 20's.
The rule of thumb is: If you are refused, go to the clinic down the street. I was refused twice. The third clinic gave me what I wanted. It was that simple.
Drs will have a problem...use BC for about 15 yrs...
He would be an idiot if he thinks you'll be around forever. I mean, you might be. No offense. But what if he met someone else after you left or died? He should keep his **** power!
Yes, most doctors will not perform the operation until the man is 30. As they feel this is the best age to make an informed decision (its probably based on the fact that most babies are made before the parents reach 30???)
My bro-in-law wanted to get it after there second bub and was told that he must be over 30.
I guess if you guys already have 3 kids, if you sweet talk a doctor, they should let him have it...
yeah they usually do, because he may want to have more children in the future for whatever reasons.
Yes! There is hope. If you and your husband agree on a vasectomy, call and schedule an appointment. The doctor will probably sit down with you both and talk. This is usually procedure. The doctor may even want you both to sign a contract saying you both agree to this. It takes a real man to want to prevent his wife from going under the knife. Good Luck!
I don't see why not.
I'm sorry hun, but nothing is 100%. The doctors don't want to do that in case he changes his mind and wants more children. Something like that is irreversible and if you two..heaven forbid...were to split up and he got remarried and wanted more kids he wouldn't be able to, and that would make the relationship more difficult to handle. 22 is way too young to have a definate opinion on that. That goes the same with a young woman having a historectomy. Maybe you could try an IUD which would stop pregnancy for roughly 5 years and when those five years are up, then maybe you two might be thinking about more children or you could always go ahead and get another IUD. Hope this helps
No, he is allowed to get a vasectomy at any age he desires.
No age has nothing to do with it. If he is 22 and already has 3 kids, it time. Good Luck
yes
not if you tell them why.
