The waiting list may be very long but it says here that there is usually no cost in a public hospital as it’s covered by Medicare. If you had been wanting it but money was the barrier.

More info but obviously ask questions and cover all your financial bases first. https://sterilizationaunty.org/tubal-ligation-surgery-australia/

While more costly there’s also a Medicare rebate on Implanon NXT prescriptions and the Mirena iud is pretty affordable under PBS and if you have a healthcare card.

Definitely look into the risks and do due diligence, all of that. But this is the money sub.
