Even after tubal litigation it’s possible to still get pregnant if the fallopian tubes grow back together or if another tube/path forms. It’s somewhat rare (0.5% of women who have had the procedure could get pregnant again)
Yeah sure but that’s not what sterilisation means. To be sterile means you’re not making any gametes whatsoever, which typically means a complete removal of the gonads (ie an oophrectomy or orchidectomy). Otherwise you’re not sterile, you’re just infertile.
Vasectomies are a lot easier to double check. A woman released 1 egg a month. A man released a LOT of swimmers every shot. Go in a cup and check for swimmers.
Vasectomies aren’t 100% foolproof.
Now how in the hell is female sterilization not 100%?

Isn’t there a chance vasectomies don’t take either?
It’s a lot easier to double check in men.
It’s almost 100% because “proper usage” includes periodic checks.

But the same thing can happen with vasectomies so why isn’t it showing anything there?

Guessing it’s more female “sterilization”
I remember hearing that in rare cases, getting their tubes tied can actually heal.
OK that’s great and everything and hurrah for the snipped, V for Victory yadda yadda…
But really, a chart on contraception made by Dr. Dick Beatty?!
I’m crying over here
I don’t get it. Does that mean on average a couple using condoms for 10 years will be pregnant 1.5 times?
