Edward, 39 years old, hopes to someday have a wife and children. He plans to have only two children.
“Of course, I do want them, but life is hard,” said Edward Goles.
Family planning is important to him aside from undergoing a vasectomy.
“It feels like you’re not a man when you do that,” he added.
In Cordillera, more men are now undergoing non-scalpel vasectomies.
This procedure only takes 15 to 20 minutes.
According to the City Health Services Office (CHSO), this vasectomy has a 99% effectiveness rate after three months.
Since 2021, over 150 men have received free non-scalpel vasectomies in the city, with the help of the CHSO.
This program will run again from November 26 to 28, offering free procedures for men 25 and older.
