Tarale    2710 Affected by 'Princess Bitch-Face Syndrome' ++++!! Persona non grata                   Since: 11-17-05 From: Adelaide, Australia Last post: 6465 days Last view: 6465 days |

| Just curious, if you were told tomorrow that you were infertile, how do you think you would react?
Do you think it would worry you? Would you be upset, or would it be a good thing for you (hey, you can have a whole lot of sex without certain consequences...) ? I'm just curious as it is something that I may be facing. I don't know for sure yet, but I know that my "bits" are fucked up.  Still.
If you knew that you were facing it as a possibility but wanted to have children, what would you then do? Would you look into freezing eggs / sperm, look into surrogate mothership, IVF, adoption, etc? Of course, what options may be available will I guess depend on the situation.... but just curious as to others opinions on the whole thing... |

| I am not interested in parenthood, so I'd be anywhere from indifferent to happy. I already consider myself sterile because I have an IUD that's statistically as effective as a tubal ligation. It's temporary sterilization (the device is effective for five years), but it still feels great to not have to worry about my contraception at all. (For the record, I'd keep the IUD - and continue with my plans to replace it when it runs out - even if I were naturally sterile. I used to have godawful heavy periods, but the progestin in the IUD stopped them completely.) | |||

| Even though I'm a guy and have a slightly different perspective...
It would probably be a bit of a shocking thing to have happen. I'm not interested in having a kid, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't be later on... Definitely wouldn't like to have that option evaporate suddenly. And no, I wouldn't take it as a good thing to be able to have lots of sex without worrying about getting the girl pregnant, since other things can still happen... If I DID want to have kids, I'd probably look into freezing sperm, just so the option would stay open. I don't think the whole surrogate mothership thing would help too much in this case, but adoption could still be an option. |

| I never really had much of a desire to parent till fairly recently. I don't know if this is something that's been heightened by the fertility scares / problems, but it is something I think about more now, and I think it's something I'd like the option of doing, one day, in the distant future....
I don't particularly like the idea of having the option taken away from me. I don't know what options would be available to me, but considering that my left ovary has experienced the same sort of pain that led to my right one being removed, the thought of freezing eggs has come to mind on multiple occasions, and if things have to come to that, it's something that I will most certainly try to do. |

| I'm not entirely interested in marrying someone (or dating someone) for sex, but I do really want to have children.
What would I do? I'd adopt. It would be really cool to, like,m marry an Asian woman, and adopt, like, an African/Asian/Latino kids, or something. But I'm all into the cross-cultural thing. Too bad people from other cultures often have beliefs so weird that I can't seem to work it out with them. 
Like, "I have a policy to not ever spend time alone with boys." Right. Because obviously, all boys are evil, or something.  |

| If i were you, i'd look into saving some eggs sooner rather than later, because i get the feeling you want kids someday, and if you loose the ovary unexpectedly you may be sad unless you had some eggs saved for later. | |||

| I would be saddened and possibly feel less masculine, I guess. I hope to someday have kids, so yeah, that'd be no good.
I know you had the whole thing with your cyst before Tarale, but did something happen to the other ovary? I hope everything's OK... |

Originally posted by NSNick I don't know for sure yet, I know that the other ovary hurts and I know that I have "general" issues. From what little information the doctors are giving me, I'm not ovulating, so I probably already am infertile  |

| I wouldn't call it the end of the world but it's certainly not anything I would want to happen to me. Perhaps in the future they will have ways to reverse such problems, even have you generate new eggs, who knows. But don't count on technology, I'd have eggs saved ASAP if I were you.
Though, if your ovar |

| This is a real primitive point of view, but here goes:
Good. Now I can have sex with whoever I want and no matter what, she won't get pregnant! And if she's 100% clean, unprotected sex here I come!  !
This is, of course, assuming I don't want kids. And I don't. |

Originally posted by Vyper Okay, but at your age I didn't want kids either. What if it was something you might want later on? Say you met the right girl and all of course...? That's the thing I think that really shits me. I may have lost the choice... |

| Adopt a baby. Have a surrogate mother. Try injection (test-tube baby). There are many ways to counter the problems of infertility in women.
As for my mindset, it's not going to change. Trust me on that. |

| "This is a real primitive point of view, but here goes:

And I don't." I actually think this is a much more enlightened view than "I'd be devastated because I want children because... well, because that's what people do!" I'd be happy to be told that I'm sterile, because that will save me the trouble of paying for and going through a vasectomy. I'm not interested in having children - who am I to create more people when there are already so many children out there who need parents? If/when I'm interested in having a child, I'll adopt. |

| Well, let's see...
I would be saddened. I actually want children when I am older. If I am infertile, I'd just be... saddened. It wouldn't be the end of the world, but still, it would impact my life somehow. (First post in this forum. ) |

Originally posted by VyperThe problem with this, being infertile dosen't protect you from various diseases. :/ If I were infertile, I probably would adopt a child or wait until technlogy allows me to get children wtih my DNA (which is already actually possible, but legal and technical reasons needs to be resolved first. With that technology, you can make a egg fertile with DNA from two people of the same gender...). D3stiny_Sm4sher: Becuse some is black, dosen't mean he have to get into black culture. I grew up with some black girl in my class, and she was as much Swede as everyone else, expect for not having a snow-white skin colour of course. (edited by Ailure on 05-21-06 11:45 PM) |

| Eh, it's obviously no desire of mine, but I can understand how upsetting it would be to lose the option. I mean, that's what being female is all about, in a way, and to be told you can't have a child the traditional way... meh.
I hope it doesn't resort to that for you, Taryn.  |

Originally posted by Vyper Dude; You are sixteen. You will not be sixteen forever. Your mindset will change somehow. I can't say it will change on any one specific topic or exactly how it will change, but it WILL change. I know because I have gone through it myself, and recognize it in other people. As to what I would do... It depends on my situation in the future. Right now I would just sorta shrug it off, as I plan on not having children for at LEAST three more years, probably more like five. I want to be at least done with undergraduate college and on towards a masters (Or a career path if I want to go that route) before I even start thinking about children. But if I had a wife who wants children... I'd look into other means. Artificial injection if that's available... whatever method lets me pass on my DNA, if that is at all possible. If for some reason I'm sterile because my little soldiers are all fucked up, a sperm donation would not be out of question. And guys, don't get all excited about not having to wear condums. STDs are a bitch. You better TRUST that girl. |
