I know many childfree martiages. OP never mentioned anything about marriage.

OP here

Adoption is emotionally draining and can be extremely expensive, not to mention that many kids that are up for adoption also have special needs. At this point in my life I just want to relax, spend time travelling and exploring different hobbies.

Um, you're 30, not 65!

I spent over 20 years in and out of hospitals because of the pain or because I needed surgery. Whenever I wasn't on my period I had to go to therapy as knowing that I could collapse on the floor at any moment was extremely traumatic. I don't want any additional stress in my life. Adoption isn't a walk in the park unless you're extremely wealthy.
