Q: What do you and your wife use for birth control?

Birth control methods seem to be limited here.  Has anyone here made a decision on this matter?

Condoms. I did not meet any women on the pill, I believe there is a morning after pill. How about fines for birth control? http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/09/04/us-china-child-idUSBRE9830JH20130904

 

can you trust any Chinese pills? http://on.aol.ca/video/smuggled-pills-from-china-made-of-human-flesh-517...

xinyuren:

Thanks Ted, but I was talking about long term birth control for family situations.  I trust my wife completely, so it is different from a one night stand.  I believe you are still single right?

Noodles

Yes. Slurping will do nicely as a BCM. And I'm not talking about noodles...

We use the Duggar pill.

Ted is right, though. I'd probably use the IUD, or condoms. Anything that prevents a sperm and egg from joining is A-OK. I draw the line at abortifacients (birth control pill, morning after pill, etc.).

Hulk:

Get the UID removed and replaced at least once every 3-4 years. After 5 years and up, it can start fusing to your wife's stuff.

 

If you don't plan on having more kids, just get her tubes tied.

My own?

We agreed to have lots of babies. Birth control is not on the table. I cannot wear condoms (don't ask), and I'm not cutting my jimmy. If we decided to use birth control, we'd be using an UID that comes in and out every few years, or until we decide to have another baby.

Vyborg:

Not 'your' own, Hulk, honeypie. I was talking to the 'you's' that could get 'her' tubes tied. According to you, that is.

Hulk:

Oh, I see. Yeah, that sometimes works too. Tying tubes if you don't want more babies.

 

You could get your jimmy cut, but it's not a perfect solution; they can still heal and re-attach, and then you'd suspect her of infidelity. Again, getting a man snipped isn't a fool-proof solution.

We refer to the "99Silva Guide to Sexual Positions" (a.k.a. The Idiots Guide to Sex). That eliminates any chance of reproduction.

TedDBayer:

Somebody made silva. They should have used the birth control called ''NO WHY"

Have you looked into an implant.

 

My crumpet has had one for years and it does the job nicely.

 

Safe and no worries.

Rin:

Where did she get the implant??

I got mine in England before coming to China, it was good for three years. It 'expired' last May and I haven't found anyone here who can replace it, let alone take out the old one.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers wink

Sadly she didn't get it inserted in China. It was put in on a short holiday to Thailand.

 

Safe and easy to get done and not too pricey.

It's a nuisance for me to have to go to Thailand.

@ Rin above, would suggest you get it done at home as this would be the most reliable (you don't want to get a fake one put it and find out too late !)

Rin:

Haha, yeah you're right.

However, I haven't been home in three years and doubt I'll be going back anytime soon. Food for thought though!

There are tons of options around, the pharmacy will have the pill and variations of it, morning after pill, condoms, you name it.

 

The best method I think is the "er...get off" method.

xinyuren:

er.. get off?  that's where she asks me to get off her?  Will never happen!  She is the reason why I'm looking for a good method.  I'm very nervous after our first baby and I can't keep saying no every night.

A:I had a similar experience in HK.

I got Z stamp and when back in China, I had to complete another RP ME, which was on the employer, i.e. included in the Contract ...We've never discussed refund of payment for HK ME with my employer. Year 2013 ...I'd say, that is a regular thingy embassies around the world require, before issuing visas for LT stay in the country. "Vladimir Vladimiro-Witch ras-Putin" (LOL@your pronunciation ..) demands the same thingy before granting LT stay in Ruski.  ... Haa, 2013 was the Snowden's year. I was in Kowloon at the time of his landing .. with all these files ... I'm-Still-in-LMAO-State ... Cost for the ME in HK was around HK$ 2000/200 EUR, and ME was kind of swift, quicker and way shorter than on the mainland ... -- icnif77
