Vasectomy

Sounds like lots of sore junk. My dad had this done back in the 90s and had zero trouble or pain at all. He told me he didn't see what the big deal was and even played a tennis tournament the next day. I guess he's the anomoly.

I drove to and from the appt. The only thing uncomfortable for me was the smell of burning flesh...my own.

I had a friend try to have sex before it was recommended. He ended up losing a testicle. Never been through this my self but I'd say it's important to follow the rules.

He leave it on the woman's nightstand?

My urologist gave me the usual warnings and ended with a "true story" about a guy that went horseback riding the next day. He came back to the office that afternoon with two cantaloupes full of blood. Something was said about mine are bigger than yours and the resulting laughter made a grown man cry.

Definitely do the testing afterwards. You want to be assured there are no stragglers.

I had it done about six years ago. Traditional scalpel/cut method (vs. the "no-scalpel" method), took a total of eight minutes from "get on the table" to "you can get dressed now". I found 80-proof pain killers to work far superior to Rx pain killers. Frozen peas/corn/etc. is highly recommended, as are underwear that are 3X too small.

Several friends have recently had the "no-scalpel" method and from their experience, I'd not opt for that at all: much longer procedure (30-45 minutes) and the recovery took more days. I can only guess that the no-scalpel method involves more exploratory searching for things whereas the cut-it method let's the doc get to work right away. I'd get the scalpel-method if I was going again.

Best thing I ever did, would do it again in a heartbeat if needed. I should not have put it off for so long, it's not as bad as I thought it'd be.

I forgot too, my wife was required to be there and observe the procedure.. Proof it was done.

Newest procedure is the Jenner method. Watch for the side effects including desire to grow hair out and wear skirts. If you dog feels like a cat see you doctor immediately.
