Speaker 1 (00:00):
Tell me these are the radio blogs on the Fred Show. Fine,
like writing in our diaries, except we stayed I'm aloud.
We called him blogs Paulina, Yes you ready, I am go.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Thank you so much, dear blog.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
So I went for my six week check up to
the doctor, doctor Mike, who's also a listener.

Speaker 4 (00:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
When I walked in, I was pantsless and he knocks you,
walks in, gives me a big hug, pantsless love him,
and he goes you pulled me up on the radio
and I was like, I know, I do. I know
I do because you're doctor Mike. And so now he's
our thirteenth listener. I heard someone moved away, so I
give you Wow. Yeah, I gave him this, like an
actual medical doctor listens to this number thirteen.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Wow right there, Wow, So shout out. We love them.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
And basically what this was for was to like check
up on me, making sure like everything is like healed
and stuff, like they somehow look and they'll tell you
if you're good. And then the discussion was like birth control,
what are.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
You doing moving forward?

Speaker 1 (00:53):
You're immediate, like how do we avoid this from happening again?

Speaker 2 (00:56):
For real?

Speaker 3 (00:57):
Like absolutely? I was like, so we want to be
really safe, like a safe as you can be, you know,
and I will be transparent. I've never been on birth
control of my life. I just never have. So I
was like, well, you know, the stigma lies and to me,
I understand that, you know, people can gain weight or
have like I don't know, like whatever, just added toudes

(01:18):
and stuff right, like you have a bad mood from it.
And I just kept hearing.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
That my whole life hormones. Hormones.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
Yeah, So I'm just like, I don't want to do
that to myself, like you know. And I was just like,
you know, what are the options, right? And they list
them out. So I was like, Okay, I'm gonna go
with the I keep calling me the IOU the yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
Iod of just not doing it, going on on a
spiritual journey and abstaining.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
That's what I told my husband, I said, because you know,
we're going back and forth, and I was like, well,
I'm like, the number one prevention will be abstinence for
the rest of your life.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Would you like that? He did not want one like that.
I did not want that.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
So he wants IO you is what he wants.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
No, So he actually preferred I didn't, and he's like, well,
what are my options? And I was like, okay, what
what a what a man he is for this is
a good man.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Can so then we're gonna go snippy snippy snippy.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
Well, I told him about it a little bit, and
I'm no medical doctor, not anymore at least.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Yeah, well you and I are both caught up in
some licensing issues.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
But yeah, right, little life happens.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
But I did tell him that we could look into that,
and he's very open to it, which I love. But
I was advised as far as that is, yes, it's reversible,
but be very certain that you don't really want any
more children.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
And I am he is, but I don't know what
if I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
Five years on the line, we go like, well we
really wanted baby G I don't think so, only child
syndrome as well.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
She will probably have and that's fine with me.

Speaker 3 (02:46):
I don't think I want to do this again, not
because I didn't enjoy my experience. And I love my
daughter with everything I have. I just know like she's
it for me. I just like I feel that in
my heart.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
I do so, so do you do like maybe do
you do like a method like the IOU until you're certain,
and then we go in there and we do a
little snippy snippy or did we do the snippy snippy
now so that you don't have to go through all
of that? And then I suppose if you're that compelled
to do it again, then they go and reroute the
whole thing.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
Yes, so I can't put it in the bank, you know,
putting the bank spy.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Yeah, we asked this question long ago because I was
thinking about maybe just at home, a little at home kit,
you know, maybe just a specimen, maybe like just in
a ziplock bag or something. Put it in the freezer
and it's just right there next to the frozen grapes
and like the pizza rolls and stuff. And then if
ever the time were to come, and then I'll go
get the snippy stiff. And then, if ever the time
were to come, I got this right right here. Hey,

(03:41):
not a bad don't confuse this as anything else, do not.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
I ended up getting the IOU, so I do have that.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
And I think what we're gonna do is, I'm going
to see how it treats my body. Right, I'm going
to see what happens. I'm gonna see how I feel.
You know, I've heard of people taking it out and
stuff because it doesn't really work with their bodies. So
I'm going to see how I do, and if it works,
it works. I think it's good for eight years, which
is insane. Why know, I'm like eight, Oh my good.
So I'm going to see how goes. But if it doesn't,
you know, we don't work well together, then I think

(04:12):
he will do the snippy stip and I love him
for that because I don't want to do something at all,
you know, doesn't make me feel the best.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
I get the snippy step. But we've talked about this
before as a single man. I mean, at this age,
I'm probably not gonna do anything, but like, I'm probably
not gonna have kids. But we talked about this a
few months ago, where if I met somebody and they
were undecided and I had already done it, does that
make me look less attractive? Because no, you don't have
to worry about it on your end anymore. But then

(04:39):
you know where I stand, you know what I mean,
So like, I'm not going to do it until I
meet somebody and then we decide together because I don't
want to you know what I mean like, if I
show up to the date, it's like, well, I don't
feel about kids. Well, oh I'm snipped. I'm done. Well
that might be a huge turnoff for someone that the
options off the table. Plus, like what does that say
about me? Never married, no kids, already snipped, Like what
are you out here doing?

Speaker 4 (04:59):
Bro?

Speaker 1 (05:01):
You know, I don't know. That's what I would be
worried about.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
But no, all right, well that's the plan. That's the plan.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
And he wants more information on the snippy snip because
I literally could not provide that to him. I really
don't know. I've never done it before myself. So I
feel like we might go down that route. We'll see,
and if we do, then I'll, you know, take care
of the IOU. But as of right now, it's me
and the IOU versus the world.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
Nothing's crazy about those things. The IUDs is. I was
dating a girl who had one, and she comes back
from the doctor one time and she's like, oh, I'm
good for another. This says I'm good for another two years.
I'm like, wait, wait on a but the package says six. Yeah.
The doctor says, so it's cool for two more years,
And I guess and I'm like, wait a minute, the
doctor just decides this, like right, we're just oh, because

(05:46):
we're just cool. Yeah, you don't have to worry about it.
I'm like, first of all that I won't be here
in two years, don't worry about that. But second of all,
based on my track, right, you don't worry about it.
But then the other thing was like, well, wait, who
makes this decision? Like I don't know if I trust it.
It's like this dude just took a look at it
was like another couple thousand miles on these No, but
apparently it has something to do with the fact that

(06:07):
the FDA will only approve them for so long. Within
in Europe there approved for much longer, so a lot
of doctors will just go with what the European standard is.
And you know, because again if I'm wrong about this,
I will correct myself. But but I was just like, oh,
are we sure about that? Like can I see something
in writing? Someone in our tech said that hers fell

(06:28):
out and that also happened to my college roommate. No
fell out.

Speaker 3 (06:32):
Oh I don't know, this person said, aud hurts to
put in.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
No one tells us this. Plus mind just fell out.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
One day Oh no, honey, I know, but my my
roommate in college hers fell out right on our dorm
room floor.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Oh my, my fear.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
I don't know how I don't have one.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
But okay, just you know, all right, talk to your doctor, okay, Mike.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Oh no, hold on a second. John's here. John has
some point. John, Good morning, how you doing.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
What's is Paulina?

Speaker 5 (06:59):
Dude? John?

Speaker 1 (07:01):
John? Now it's early in the morning, so we got
to be kind of careful. I hear some babies in
the background. So if you got to a sect me,
you didn't you didn't go to a very good practitioner.

Speaker 4 (07:10):
No, well, no, it's not that.

Speaker 5 (07:15):
It's just, uh, you know, when you're you make a
decision with your sniff and other and it just doesn't
work out. So obviously, you know, I got married again
and we decided to have kids, but I already had
the snippy snippy. I'm just saying I was. I heard,

(07:37):
I heard the segment, and I'm you know, I listen
every day, so I'm kind of I'm on. I want
to let Pauline to know that painful reverse. So it's
the most it was the worst thing I've ever been
in in probably two weeks. It was two weeks of
absolutely Okay.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
Now, the problem of meself is no big deal. Right
when they snip it.

Speaker 5 (08:03):
Yeah, So what happens is they basically, you know, you
have I mean, have to get technical or you know,
into kind of how it all works. But they just
basically go in and just kind of snip one little
spot where the sperm comes through, and that's just it,
and they cut it and that's the it. Then what
happens is is then after so long, they have to

(08:25):
go back in and kind of connect it. And the
thing is that sometimes it doesn't work. And for me,
I got lucky enough.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
I'm gonna be honest with you, Hey, John, John, I
love you. I'm gonna get aasectomy after this call.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
Here's also the problem is that you think Pauline is
gonna care about Hobby's pain.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
She had a baby, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
That's but just saying this man is just saying that,
like I mean, it's it's just one more thing. And
then John, I assume at some point you're gonna go
in and do it again, right for the third time
to shut it down.

Speaker 5 (08:55):
No, So actually we actually had one actually had to
me and my wife. We have two now, so I
have three, but we have two kids, and and it
just happened that she has We've had a bad history
with a good past history, and we had a couple
of losses.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Oh no, oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Okay, so
you don't basically you don't have to go back again.
Just what you're saying.

Speaker 5 (09:20):
The other thing is like we had she had to
do a procedure to get kids, and so we had
to have a sea section. She had to have a
sea section, so they were in there anyway.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Oh I see, Okay, they handled it. Then, Hey, John,
you're the man. I appreciate the perspective. Have a great day.
Thank you for listening. Look at this guy.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
I thought he was gonna tell me if how he
gets remarried. That's why I thought he was going with this.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
And I was like, well, if you guys to be
married to a twenty year old, he better be snips.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
Now.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
My buddy, I won't say his name, but he's very
vocal that he will not get a aseectomy because his
next wife might want kids. Oh yeah, he said this
many times. Oh that man, and I have no sympathy.
I'm sorry, unless there's some serious complication. I have no
sympathy for a dude getting snipped versus what you guys
have to endure.

Speaker 4 (10:05):
Now.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
Granted, this sounds like having to go back and double
down another time. That sounds like that was an extra effort,
but still what you guys go through. Mmm. How he's
looking at the sporting schedules like March would be good
two weeks, you know what. I was talking to my
brother in law about that because he's talking about getting
one too, and I said, you should have done it
in March. Yeah, I mean they were having a baby then.

(10:25):
But it's like you got two weeks or you know,
of basketball games, sit on the couch and you know,
do it right around there because you got nothing else
to do. Hey, Marissa, you're an actually you're an actual physician.

Speaker 4 (10:36):
Am That's right? And I'm a listener.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
Real doctors I'm seeing tomorrow. I'm concerned, Marissa. Okay, Well,
what some professional thoughts on this topic?

Speaker 4 (10:50):
Uh huh, Well, I want to congratulate, congratulations, one of
the best forms of birth control.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
Oh, thank you, look at me.

Speaker 4 (10:58):
Yeah, great choice. Yeah, but I'm hearing a lot of
things you're saying and I don't want folks to get
confused or if you had questions, I'm wanting to offer
up what I.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
Know, Well, what do we need to know? Like in
thirty seconds, what do we need to know? Marissa, I'm
thinking about getting now you do?

Speaker 4 (11:15):
You should? It's excellent. And like if you were to
ask all the guy in cologists what do they prefer
for themselves, they're going to choose a naud. So that
says a lot, right, it says a lot. What would
we like for our own selves? You know these friends
pretty He's right, right, It's not that we're just kind
of like looking at this device and we're like, you
probably got a few more miles on it. It's because
of the way the FDA approves medication in the US,

(11:37):
but that's not been updated, or medical devices for use
in patience. So now that's been updated. So Caulleina, if
you go on and think about, oh, my baby's two
years old, three years old, that's how you can remember
like should I change it? Is it time to change it?
In this case, it's going to be seven depending on
the one you got.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Yeah, congratulations, Now, Marissa, I'm very scared because this woman
I've in my forty three years of life. I've later
in life, when someone tells me they have this installed,
I tend to really be very confident that we don't
we're not going to have any problems. Maybe a little
too confident in fact. However, someone just texted that they
had their friend had three babies with one in How

(12:15):
is that possible?

Speaker 4 (12:17):
That can happen depending on the position, right, So like
this is a kind of id and what if it's
not positions correctly? So you're right, I've taking care of
patients we're pregnant with an iudine place. But it really
is really safe, and you don't want to make sure
that it's continued. You evaluate it every year or so
unless you're having any symptoms, and make sure it's placed correctly.
And oh my god, you wish it's the right type. Yeah,

(12:39):
I'm totally scared.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
It's an excellent informed Marissa. You're going to be our
staff doctor, and you're going to handle everyone I date
from now on. They're going to go through you. That's
going to be the first step. First of all, the
non disclosure agreement, and after they sign that, then they
got to go see you and make sure everything's positioned
properly before there are any positions happening over here. Yes, Rufio,
uh doctor friends got this bump on his lip. He
would like, shut up, he is gone, It's gone.

Speaker 4 (13:04):
I don't have it.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
I got nothing, I got no problems in the listen,
don't worry doctor Sonya. My dermatologists got about thirty different
angles of this thing this week and told me that
shut the hell up. But Rufio wants to keep talking
about it. God, Marissa, this guy put an IUD in
his mouth.

Speaker 4 (13:23):
Period. You just don't have the right kind of plumbing,
you know.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
Oh yeah, all right, Mrisa, I gotta go and call anytime.
We love you. Have a good day, girl.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
Can I get pregnant with an idea or not?

Speaker 4 (13:35):
Now?

Speaker 1 (13:36):
I'm scared, so am I That makes sense one of
the safest rooms. But all the time, like, oh my god,
you know what I've done? All of it anyway,
