Woman denied permanent birth control on NHS wins case with ombudsman
Leah Spasova from Oxfordshire fought for 10 years to obtain tubal ligation procedure, while men could get vasectomies

Though the woman raised what I think is a valid point:
She said the procedure “done in an overpriced private clinic can cost anywhere between £2,000 and £4,000. Having read the committee’s meeting notes from September 2017 and others, I found that female sterilisation costs around £1,000.”
She continued: “The average price for the contraceptive pill today is £22.04. If the NHS was to fund this for a woman for 20 years, the total spent would be £5,289.60.”
