Oh *******.....

OK. I am looking to have a vasectomy. I've heard lots of stories. None of them sound that good to be honest. I've also looked at some websites. Some of them make me feel better. Others definitely do not!
So, where better than PH to allay any fears and find out that this is a completely painless and comfortable process? Or not.
Can you guys on here let me know the real deal on this? In all honesty I'm slightly wimpishly nervous about it all. But its going to have to be done so forewarned is forearmed. Or something.

Yeah, I definitely want it. The wife and I have 3 children and we think that is more than enough for us. Without wishing to get rid of one, of course.
I'm kind of expecting it to really hurt afterwards. Its more during the procedure that I am worried about. Couple of people I have spoken to have found it most uncomfortable even though its 'sold' as being very easy and straightforward.

Not that bad at all.
When I had mine, I was given a mild oral seditive and given 15 minutes for that to kick in. Dr then used a needle to numb scrotum vas and testicals. This was the worst bit, but no worse than a gentle kick in the nads.
Next, laid out under the green sheet and the plums pulled through. Dr then roots around in the hole made by the anasthetic to pop out the tube. Couple of clamps, snip, and tie up the ends, pop them back in. Repeat for the other one.
And that's it. Small dressing on the hole and a tight pair of keks. Next day sack was a bit bruised but not painful.
Well worth it for the bare back sex aspect.

Wear the jock strap, take Ibuprofen even if you don't feel you need it. They don't give out this advice for nothing...I'm kind of expecting it to really hurt afterwards.

My best mate had this done after him and his missus decided to have a 5-a-side footie team.
It apparently feels like you've been kicked in the nuts for a few days, no sex for 6 weeks, then you get to send your sperm in the post for a sperm count. Lovely.
As far as the procedure goes, it took him about 20 mins to get it done, and about 3 days of pain, finally easing off after day 4.
Oh, and you have to shave your pubes.

Not to be rude, but what if you change wife for whatever reason (doesn't have to be a moral failing, she may just die in a horrible accident) - might you want more kids then (they might die in the accident too)?

That sounds ridiculously crass actually but I can't think of a polite way to put it.
This is something I need to be having a chat to my Doc about in the near future as we're not having any more kids.
Bit nervous though. Wondering if any of the PH Docs know if there's likely to be any complications as I had an op for an undescended testicle when a nipper and although that one's fine, the other side is only partially descended & pops up & down as it where...
yes, I know I need to have a chat with the Doc but forewarned and all that.
isn't it funny what we talk about on PH! MY Wife always said it's a load of balls...

Good point! It is reversible usually but more complicated. From memory, if it's done private, £200 to snip, £1000 to reverse.That sounds ridiculously crass actually but I can't think of a polite way to put it.
easiest thing i've ever had done, took less than 15minutes, later that day it felt like i'd be gently kicked in the nads, after 2 days they were a little bruised looking, I made sure I didn't 'play' with the thing for a week but after that it was easy.
you need to do at least 30...erm...exits before your clear to 'do it' unprotected but if I were you i'd leave it til you have the all clear.
I managed the 30 exits in a week LOL

My OH is a doc and said he wont have one as 1/3 of men have chronic pain. I know a few people who've had it and none have ever said about this but i guess it's not the kind of thing you shout about!
Reversal does have poor results because the sperm is shipped off elsewhere and your body can then produce antibodies. So basically you munch up your own swimmers!

This won`t help the OP.
When I had my nads disconnected the
doing the op failed to administer sufficient anaesthetic. The initial incision caused me to launch myself about 3 feet off the table like something from Cape Canaveral. I`m ashamed to say I then proceeded to berate the bastid for several minutes and very nearly forced him to swap places.
I also seem to recall the vicious tt wielding something resembling a soldering iron which upon application to the plums resulted in smoke and a smell of burning.
Still good luck old son.

Yeah I remember that smell.....EWWWWWwwwwwt wielding something resembling a soldering iron which upon application to the plums resulted in smoke and a smell of burning. Still good luck old son.
My Doc actually tested to see if the anesthetic had worked by using his knife....sadist!
A friend just had this done. He took one paracetomol after he was released from hospital and nothing else.
For 7 days he followed the doctors directions to the letter, no lifting etc and he is convinced this is why it went so well.
He also enjoyed having to flush his pipes every other day.
