Don’t have fertility issues but was browsing my coverage for some other stuff and went down a rabbit hole. I have really really good health insurance that is probably better than 99% of Americans so I’m sure it’s true for everyone else. This is honestly super sad considering I have several coworkers that battled with infertility and spend THOUSANDS of dollars out of pocket to finally have their children. But they’ll pay for you to mutilate your body and even fly you to have the procedure done. Unbelievable.

Conservatives aren't against those treatments existing, in general they are against it being forced to be provided via group insurance - like fertility treatments they should be paid through your own hard work or covered by an extra voluntary plan. The main reason insurance has become so expensive is because every year the treatment coverage list grows significantly.
People should be free to support whatever level of coverage they agree with in their insurance and should be able to pick and choose
I agree with this and agree with being able to pick and choose your level of coverage. I just didn't understand why vasectomies were being lumped in with sex changes and abortions.
