Medical question
This might be OT, don't know, but I was wondering about tubals and the availability to get them in the military. You see, I've been arguing with this asshat about the abortion debate in another community, and he said that women can always get a tubal; medical clinics in TN for instance, can offer this procedure to low income women. Then they wouldn't have to get abortions in the first place, especially if they are NOT going to take responsibility for their actions (his reasoning). Anyway, I got to thinking about it; now I know you have to be a certain age to get one, but do you also have to already have had children as well before they can do the procedure? Also, for the spouses out there, do you know if you can obtain one through Tricare? This is one area that I'm clueless on because children/giving birth was never on my menu (I'm unable to have them) so I never worried/cared about it. Oh, and for those that are active duty, can you even get one period at the hospital? Thanks for all responses.
