Female inmates revealed stories of being told - while in labor - that they should have the surgery, without being given a reason why it was medically necessary.

A woman I know who was in a regular hospital and not a prison told me that when she was in active labor with her second baby, she was asked numerous times to sign a form for tubal ligation. The nurses seemed to wait after particularly painful contractions for their request.

I’ve had four, and nobody ever even suggested such a thing...which is a good thing, because I would have taken their head off. :)

An agreement made while under duress is not made freely, and thus is not legally binding. Sue.
