Y'all forgetting they were gathering period data and were arresting women who had 'abortion-like' procedures? (discuss.online)

I won't do this until we have a surgery that allows you to turn your sperm production on and off at any time with the push of a button.

I don't want kids but I may want them someday, and I rather not have to go through surgery twice and spend a bunch of money just because I changed my mind.

Iirc they can extract sperm directly from the testicles with a needle for folks who don't want to/can't get a vasectomy reversed but change their mind about kids, not a fun procedure to go through I'm sure but still easier than reversing a vasectomy and a much shorter recovery time

Uh, yeah, as an idea, lol:

Since spring 2016, we have had the OK from an ethics committee of a renowned clinic in Germany for the clinical study on the Bimek SLV Model 4. Unfortunately, we have not yet been able to find the financial means to start the clinical study.

For an investment of 600k € we could at best have the test valves manufactured. But then there would be no money left to push the study forward in compliance with all medical device laws. If no further investments were made then, the validity of the sterile packaging would expire.

It is not easy to find investors for this project if one is honest and openly communicates known risks.

How would you feel about adopting?

I got snipped and then got married to someone who already had a kid, so I ended up being a (step-)parent anyway. But I told my doctor that if I ever changed my mind, I would adopt.
