I’m having my bisalp on Monday! 🎉 For context, I’m getting it done at Kaiser in Richmond, CA. Is anyone else getting theirs around the same time? 😂

I’m so nervous! I’ve been binge-watching way too many bisalp TikToks, and now I’ve managed to freak myself out even more. 😅 I came across two different TikToks from two different people who said they had a bisalp and still ended up pregnant. Now I’m freaking tf out hahaha.

I know it’s supposed to be one of the most effective forms of permanent birth control, but hearing those stories has my anxiety going crazy. 😭

If you’ve had a bisalp, how was your experience? And if you have any words of reassurance (or recovery tips!), I’d really appreciate them!

I had a bilateral salpingectomy (bisalp), but I still find myself worrying about getting pregnant. I know it’s supposed to be one of the most effective forms of permanent birth control, but my anxiety keeps making me wonder about the “what ifs.”

If my husband finishes inside me, am I still safe from pregnancy? Do any of you with a bisalp still let your partner finish inside without using any other protection?

I’d really appreciate hearing from people who’ve had a bisalp or from anyone who knows more about how effective it really is. I could use some reassurance.

Thank you all!

Any tips will be appreciated! Thank you all!!

Hi! I’m getting my bisalp next month. I’m really excited but freaking out too. Lol. 🥲
I’m so scared of going into the OR and knowing that I will be having a general anesthesia.
Also, to anyone who has done it, how was it when you woke up from the anesthesia??

I’m just really overthinking this. 😅
Thanks!!!

I’ve been wearing glasses since I was a kid—so about 25 years now. I’ve tried contacts, but I think I look awkward without my glasses. Does anyone else have this problem?

I’m so used to how I look with glasses that I feel uncomfortable, shy, and awkward whenever I’m not wearing them.

Hi all! I’m trying to get off reta since I have a surgery next month.
Rrta worked great for me and been taking it for 3 months. I lost about 20lbs.
I’m planning to start pinning again a week after my surgery. Do you think I should stick to reta or get on tirz instead?
I just don’t like the skin sensitivity that reta gives 😭
Thanks!!

Hi! I’m about to take my AMCA phlebotomy exam next week. I’m in California. However, I’m so confused because I keep seeing NHA phlebotomy exams in TikTok.
Are AMCA and NHA two different exams? My instructor said I’m only to take the AMCA. Helppp. Thank you!

Hi! I have decided to get my bilateral salpingectomy done next month. I have already consulted my OBGYN, and she was very supportive with my decision. Of course, she discussed the risks but according to her, I am considered low risk even I have complex regional pain syndrome.
She also mentioned that some people had regrets after the procedure..

I’m very excited but very anxious too. I know I don’t want to have kids ever since I was young. I’m 31 now btw.

Any tips? Advice?

Thank you!!
