50$???? Where do you live? Can I live there?
It’s free and covered by universal healthcare here in Canada. You just have to ask for one.
Midwest here. Just had the procedure about two weeks ago (recovery slightly slower than the commenter above, but not by much). They said something like $500 without insurance which honestly wasn't even that bad. After insurance it was $110. One consultation of "you sure big dawg?" Then the procedure about 4 weeks later, which took maybe 20-30 minutes and I was just chatting away with some Valium in my system. Very easy.
You can so just be brown and walk in front of ICE. They have a history of forced sterilizing
Jesus, you're not making that up. I think that may ruin my night.
That shit is copay. Can't even get a cat neutered for $50.
Midwest US, but it's really down to the insurance policy. This particular procedure was 100% covered other than copay. Copay was usually $50, but for specialties it was $75. If you have insurance, definitely check your policy. A lot of times vasectomy is explicitly called out.
