He said, “I’ll look into it,” in regards to finding the cost and a doctor. He even told his step-dad and friends he was getting it done.

I know he can change his mind. I’m not saying he can’t. I’m just saying that I don’t know how to approach this as I was under the assumption it was getting done so I went on oral BC and decided I would ride out the monthly pain because I thought I wouldn’t be on it for long. If he won’t do it, then I have to look at other options and need to get off of this as it’s making me sick and lessening the quality of me taking care of my kids. I see a doctor who specializes in PCOS and female hormonal issues and he’s been with me through my journey to recovery since I was diagnosed at 20. It’s condoms or a vasectomy at this point.

I just don’t want to be that wife that a man complains about to his friends, “She says condoms or no sex.” But I guess reading everyone’s reply, that’s what I’m going to have to put nicely to him.
