I took the cheaper and less painful all-natural alternative, myself. Ask your doctor if Rampant Homosexuality is right for you. May cause fabulousness, sass, and an overbearing urge to get brunch.
This. Don't be the "pain don't hurt" guy, and be on the lookout for daily stuff that does not feel right. In my case it was driving a car long distance 2nd day... should have pulled over and let her take the wheel, but nooooo...
My fiance got one this past friday, we're happily kid free. So far its been a easy recovery for him. Make sure to take it easy, don't want your balls to swell up!
I’m 32 and I’m really considering getting snipped. I don’t think the world really needs more people in it right now and to be honest I don’t want the financial burden in these insane times. If I ever do want kids I’ll adopt. Honestly we should do more research on finding a way to “cut” men that’s easily reversible as the leading form of birth control. It just makes more sense to unload the gun than to make the target chemically bulletproof or putting a bullet proof bag over the gun
Good for you! I did the same quite a few years ago. No more need for my wife to take birth control pills - I really didn't like the idea of a daily chemical dose for her anyway. So many scare stories about swelling and pain, I had neither, I hope you don't too.
When I got mine I was given a Valium and I was so loopy I was asking the nurse to take photos of the incision with my phone camera so I could show my wife later. O
It's not really too bad. I was in and out in 30 minutes. They have an incision-free procedure (basically a burst of air) so you don't get stitches. It aches like you got kicked in the nuts for a few days, but that's it.
Did mine in '02. No regrets. As MANY people will tell you... follow the advice on rest and ice. Blow it off at your own peril. I followed them and had no problems. Others did not... oops.
Best thing I did too! Gravity will be against you for a few days and the color of your sack will be blue blue. But after your cleared for take off! You’ll be so horny the crack of dawn will look good! Congratulations!
Did the same at 35. My experience was great & pain-free. The worst part was my feet in stir-ups, exposed to the doc (and the ladies have to do this a lot more & it's more intrusive, so I'm not complaining).
Two things. Follow your doctor's after care directions. Don't be a fool. Also, return your specimens for testing. I did, and four weeks post vasectomy, I was back t0 100% fertility, and had to go back in for a second one. The first was the simple in-office procedure, the second one was in the hospital under twilight anesthesia, so they could cut open a little further an make sure the tubes were sealed off.
Been doing research and I've read that in the US, it's $500-$1000 on average. That is nothing compared to the alternative(s). I'd cough up $900 to never have a one night stand come knocking with a 2 year old.
I went in, no anxiety, everyone says it's no big deal. Anesthetic didn't work. Most painful thing of my life. Soaked my clothes in sweat; made a sweat angel. Balls ached for about 5 years. Best part is that a few months after my vasectomy, my wife got a test done and promptly had her uterus removed, rendering my procedure redundant.
You can get it done under anesthesia in a same day surgery center so that you're not awake during the procedure. It will cost you 5x more money. But you can do it. This is how I plan to have it done.
Those anxiety meds made EVERYTHING feel alright! After they kicked in I was asking the nurse to take photos of the incision site for me. That was embarrassing. They thought it was funny.
Was uncomfortable for like a day and a half. No real pain afterwards. Went to an art show that night. Worst part was smelling the charred flesh as they carterized my tubes. Good part was the cute nurse holding 'me' up and out of the way.

It was the best $500 I've ever spent. No kids and too many dogs is a fantasful existence. 5 stars, would recommend.

Take it seriously easy for several days. I did for 3 days then did a bunch of heavy work. I paid the price and it was steep.

I got a Valium drip to mellow out. That was freaking awesome. They wouldn't let me take it home :(

The hormones from her implant were not good for her. I gladly take on this responsibility for her health.

Just got mine done 2 months ago and everything went great. Good luck with yours

You're good people @IronMagnus, best of luck with it, my ex had it done, said he didn't feel a thing at the time and he was back to work the next day!

If you wanna feel old, success kid is 14 years old today.

Congrats. You'll walk funny for a few days, but spontaneous sex is the best. Well worth it!

same, but mine obliged and so now I have a weird blurry photo of some doctor operating on my balls while I give a thumbs up.
Gelaticat
Oh, I got the photos alright. But I was so high I forgot about it until well after while looking through my phone. That was a bloody surprise.

34 year old here, just had mine snipped in February. No kids for me either!

How come?

I'm seriously considering it. I have one kid and don't want/need/can't afford any more.

PineappleLoopsBroether
That just seems like a no brainer, you’re allowed to do that, and there are only pros and advantages.
Thewayofthebear
It appears so, I have my son and he's enough for me.

Good.

Did you even want the first one though?

Yes, I've always wanted to be a father.

Right on brother

Got mine after we had our two munchkins. I can think of a more comfortable way to spend 20-25 minutes, but man was it worth it!

The vasectomy is not complete until the full set of specimens all return clear.

I too had conscious surgery on my genitals. I'm going my part👍

More people should choose to not have kids -- before they actually have kids (I taught daycare once).
yakboy
20 years ago, and the incision was so small I couldn't hardly see it.
AnonOmis1000
So I've always wondered, does that affect the volume or consistency of your seman?
gardengnomeii
I did not notice any change in the discharge that is not consistent with my hydration state.

Got mine done years ago, went real smooth and cost nothing. Yay NHS!

I don't have 900, I'll just try to spank it dry

Got mine for free is the USA!!! All I had to do was go to war…twice. VA has treated me pretty well so far tho.

I will never forget the feeling of having a complete stranger shave my balls.
IronMagnus
Aww man, they made me do it myself a couple days ago.
isuckatprofiles
Dude, you got screwed. That lady was a professional.

Good luck! I've heard the process is quick and easy. I would probably get one myself if the thought didn't cause me so much unjustifiable anxiety.

Went great for me. Doc used local anaesthesia, snipped, and that was it. Three days after I was shagging the girlfriend. No pain.

They will give you anxiety meds before the procedure if you want.

Gonna need those anxiety meds before I make the call to schedule the procedure!

Same. It is very disconcerting to see smoke rising from your crotch.
