A 23-year-old woman has revealed how her gynecologist denied her a tube-tying procedure even though she knows for herself that she does not want to have any children.

Olivia Downs said she has always been sure that she never wanted to have kids so the consultation with her gynecologist left her infuriated.

“I never want children, I have had this made up in my mind since I was old enough to think of the concept,” she expressed.

Olivia said that her gynecologist told her that tubal ligation, which is done to prevent sperm from meeting an egg, is irreversible and that she might regret it once ‘Mr. Right’ comes along.

The 23-year-old said that she knew what she wanted to get into that’s why she made an inquiry.

Having kids is “not in my five-year plan, my 10-year-plan, or my 50-year-plan, I don’t want them,” she said.

But her doctor insisted that she may change her mind in the future, so she was presented with other options such as getting an IUD, which is a small device that acts as a contraceptive.

Her video has gained more than 2 million views and thousands of comments, with one person writing: “Keep fighting. I spent a decade trying to get mine done. You will find the right doctor. It’s just hell getting there.”

Another wrote: “I swear this country has a vendetta against women and their wants/needs.”

A third said: “I’m 22 and child free, had mine tied 6 weeks ago, it took me 4 different doctors to finally find one to do the procedure, don’t give up.”
