Petition Action

Make doctors unable to refuse permanent sterilisation for all adults.

Petition Details

Make it law that all UK doctors have to perform permanent sterilisation when requested by an able-minded adult regardless of their beliefs unless a prominent and obvious physical or mental risk is presented.

Additional Information

For to long women and men alike have suffered through birth control and the risk of unwanted pregnancies due to our health system believing they know more than the able bodied adult making the request.

This should not be a want decided by a doctor, but a human right.

As adults we should have complete bodily autonomy, and this starts and ends with our reproductive rights. Which in the 21st century should expand to gull control over our ability to reproduce on top of our right to abortion.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about whether to approve a particular medical procedure is a clinical matter matter for the NHS and individual clinicians, not the UK Government or Parliament.
