I’m trying to get permanent sterilization, but SSM won’t do it because they’re a catholic organization. I’m willing to look further out in Wisconsin as well. Thanks.
I’m 21, female, childfree, and queer. I don’t want kids.
I’ve been wanting to get a salpingectomy in Wisconsin but I’m at a cross-roads. I’m under Dean Health Plan through my mother, and we go through SSM which does not even allow elective sterilization due to it being a catholic provider.
I know there are child-free friendly clinics in my area, but I don’t know if I’m “allowed” to go to them? I’d probably just have to pay out of pocket, right?
I don’t really know what I’m supposed to do? I’m in Madison WI area. I cannot turn to my parents for help because they are both strongly against me getting sterilization and will not help me. I don’t know how this sort of thing works. They’ve never really explained insurance to me & all the info I have found is confusing. Any guidance is appreciated.
Is it as simple as being referred to an out of network provider? I don’t know. Thanks.
