It'd extremely sad. They need to be fed through a tube, can't even talk or move or anything. It's like being paralyzed

It is sad. But it’s nice to at least have a voice. I could imagine living thru that and just wanting to say I love some one, one more time

No joke from what I've read this contraceptive is almost perfect. No side effects because it's just a protein. Works basically on a day 1/?

Known effectiveness of any non "snipsnap balls/ovaries gone" contraceptive. (The pill has 99% ONLY if you take it absolutely on time)

So it doesn't work if you take it after the kid is born ?

The pill has to be taken at certain times corresponding to the female menstruation cycle iirc. And the effectiveness drops when not timed
