Whenever a child got sick, the one who would feel the most agony would be the mother, who couldn’t do anything but to wait for the child to recover on their own.
She had seen a lot. So, she was naturally afraid when it came to her.
The doctor glanced at her again, “If so, then you should try a ligation to stop it once and for all.”
“Doctor, will the ligation bring harm to the body?” Lin Lan was a little apprehensive and worried. No matter what, it was still an operation.
The doctor lowered her eyelids, “What’s the harm? Just a small wound would be the outcome of that. But you would be discharged in three days after the operation.”
Three days and a small wound, ?Lin Lan didn’t want to take the risk.
The operation would eventually lower her vitality anyways, so she might as well forget about it altogether.
At this time, Yang Han came back and entered the room, “Doctor Zhuang, can men also be sterilised?”
The doctor smiled, “Xiao Yang, do you want to undergo a vasectomy?”
Yang Han laughed, “I’m not married yet, so it’s not my turn to think about this issue.”
He said to Lin Lan, “Wouldn’t it be enough to let Han Qingsong do the procedure?”
However, Lin Lan was worried that the ligation would be harmful to her body and hence, did not want to initiate it. Naturally, she wouldn’t force another person to do something that she already didn’t want to. What if the vasectomy operation was harmful to men too? Han Qingsong was her husband and the father of her children. If he was not well, how could they all be well?
Doctor Zhuang saw the change in her expression. It was Yang Han who brought her here, so she treated Lin Lan quite well, as if she was an acquaintance, “It would be better to put on the ring then. The women in the city would also choose to wear the ring temporarily, but if they decide to have more children, they could just take it off at any given time. It would also be a better contraceptive method.”
However, Lin Lan remembered glancing through a report that some women who wore birth control rings all year round weren’t able to take them out after a long time of remaining inside their bodies.
Besides, after wearing them for a long time, some of the women were said to experience physical changes to their bodies. Sometimes, it would go as far as causing gynaecological diseases as well.
She didn’t want to take the risk— even if there were people that weren’t affected by the implementation, should she be one of the unluckier victims, everything would go downhill from there.
“Well then, doctor, are there condoms available in the hospital?” She gave the matter some thought and realised that it would be more convenient to use condoms.
Before Doctor Zhuang could speak, Yang Han laughed.
Lin Lan glared at him, wondering what’s so funny about that.
Doctor Zhuang said, “This one is more expensive and the quantity is limited. Of course, you can buy some if you do it less frequently.”
At this time, women basically used birth control rings as their main contraceptive device. Even those working in modern cities would not be able to buy condoms all the time unless their wages were high.
In the end, everything still came down to money.
There were not many hospitals in the County that had condoms in stock at the moment. After all, these products weren’t very well-known.
Doctor Zhuang went to get some.
Lin Lan was not shy. Although she blushed in front of Han Qingsong, she was calm in front of anyone else— especially professional doctors.
Was there really anything to be shy about with the doctor? She didn’t think too much about them.
