r/Vasectomy

As the title says, I am now exactly at 2 weeks. During normal life I am almost pain free without the occasional ache or zap or heavyness. Not constant. I tried to walk with my legs normally and squashed the boys yesterday, paid with mild pain that evening although walking itself stopped being discomforting after a while. Also touching in the shower has to be gentle to not cause aches.

When did you guys start not being this "attentive"?

Exactly what the title says lol

I hope my questions are acceptable and not flagged inappropriate.

Basically I just want to know, what happens after everything is done and over with. Once you’re fully healed. Do you lose your sex drive? Does sex feel the same? What happens when you orgasm? CAN you still orgasm? Probably a stupid question but, does anything come out? Or is it like a deflating balloon situation where you just pop and that’s all.

I swear I’m not that dumb 😭

My husband got a vasectomy back in June after I had our 4th baby. We had twin boys first and then a little girl and got pregnant with our 4th by accident while I was on the pill.

I’ve been on birth control for a long time and now being done with pregnancy, nursing and not being on the pill my sex drive is CRAZY. I never thought about how the hormones were affecting my drive which has always been moderate but now I feel like a teenage boy. I was definitely not excepting this reaction but it’s been easily one of the best decisions we’ve made and has definitely helped our marriage and sex life tremendously!

I just got my vasectomy today. Was it common for you ya’ll to be extremely horny after the procedure? Like I feel like I have to bust the biggest nut but I’m following the doctor’s orders 😂

Seems like it didn't fully work and my procedure was done Dec 2nd last year. My Dr is recommending a redo tomorrow. I'm feeling pretty nervous and unsure and also want this whole thing overwith. Feeling pretty stressed and if I don't do it tomorrow I'll have to at least a month due to availability.

Seems like I broke a rule bymy wording… but there's my post again xD

Had my consultation last month and my surgery is scheduled for this Friday. I'm a little nervous but excited about this next step in life. The wife and I decided we don't want kids and want to travel more. She's currently on birth control, but I know it can affect their hormones, so l stepped up and said I would get snipped.

Here's hoping for a successful surgery and a quick recovery.

i'm back to week 3-5 in terms of pain. i can really feel it's congestion, everything radiates from the epidydimis. today was the first day when i thought of taking NSAIDs. i'm seeing my doc in two days, but is there anyone who had similar things and then still managed to turn back to normal or am i looking at pvsp.

Os homens tem medo de serem receitados por isso? Eu sei que muitos sofrem psicologicamente com isso,seja em uma disfunção,ou que se sentiram menos masculinos,eu sou homem né também,fiz vasectomia e não foi nem um pouco legal,no meu caso

Respeito os casos que deram certo ...mas o assunto aqui é porque ainda existe esse tabu,de que se eu falar que foi ruim vou ser menos homem?

Uma boa porcentagem de vocês se arrependeram,sejam por percas,dores....

Nenhum médico te chega e fala o lado ruim como se só tivesse lado bom

Aos médicos que fazem isso

Vocês são poucos profissionais.

Got snipped a few days ago and when I was leaving the doctor told me "oh by the way, almost forgot, no ejaculation of any kind for 2 weeks"

I have a hyperactive libido, since I was 13, every day for the past 18 years I've either jerked off or had sex, it's maddening to say the least and I'm only on day 2, I'm going to be climbing the walls by day 13, pray for me

im coming up on 2 weeks post op tomorrow- no issues so far. In terms of getting back into a work routine, is there anything you'd suggest I avoid for a bit longer?

As title aays, vasectomy about six months ago. After the first week I felt totally fine no pain whatsoever. About two weeks post op I made the dumb mistake of going to the gym and doing deadlifts, squats, bench press etc. I'm embarassed after the fact of how stupid that was. Anyways, ever since then I went to the gym about once a week and took it more easy. Eventually about a minth ago when the pain wouldn't fully go away I quit lifting at the gym entirely. It's been about a month of no working out and I still have a lingering dull pain above my penis. I've tried to cut down my frequency of ejaculating as well to try and help. I'm getting worries this pain won't go away and I'm kind of freaking out. I also really miss the gym as it is an outlet for me.

It’s been about 1.5 years since my vasectomy. The procedure took place two months before our wedding. My future (at the time) wife was very interested in it and kept encouraging me to do it. She didn’t want to have children or take birth control herself. I really wanted to do it, too. So I did.

Up until the procedure, our sex life was going great. We had sex every day. Sometimes several times a day. Then I went in for the procedure, and of course, there was a bit of a break afterward—the break was supposed to last until the wedding, until the semen analysis. I had the tests done, it turned out I was fine, and... we started trying to restart our sex life.

And right away, it was clear that my wife didn’t want it anymore. But it seemed like it would pass, and for the next month we continued having sex, though it wasn’t very satisfying. Then, seeing her negative attitude toward sex and her clearly non-existent libido, things just died down, and we haven’t had sex once in a year.

I know she once had a boyfriend who’d had a vasectomy, and as she said herself, it wasn’t a problem for her—on the contrary, they had sex three times a day.

I don’t quite understand, because nothing happened after the procedure. There were no arguments or anything. She also never says anything, just that she simply has no libido, and that’s it. After a year, she went to a psychiatrist, got medication, but still nothing, zero libido.

And now I’m wondering if it’s possible that this is because of the vasectomy?

I got a no needle no scalpel by a reputable doctor. I looked everywhere and he had tons of positive reviews everywhere. Someone had even asked about him on my home town’s Reddit page and there were at least 30 replies of people saying how great he is. He’s board certified and the only doctor in my state that specializes in vasectomies. The procedure went great. No pain, quick, I thought I’d be good in a few days like a lot of people. Here I am on day 16. I have not progressed at all since the first few days. My balls ache when I walk. Sometimes even when I’m just laying down. I can’t do anything but lay around. I’ve tested a couple times and even with compression shorts on and then fully supported it aches badly to even lightly jog or barely hop off the ground. The pain isn’t terrible just walking it feels like if you get hit in the nuts but not that hard. It just is always there. Everything I do. I’m losing mind. It’s like I’m in a nightmare. It’s negatively effecting every single aspect of my life. I wish I could go back in time and undo it so bad. Worst decision of my life. Please be aware of this possibility if you’re considering it. The odds are a lot higher than I thought. Oh, and it’s possible for it to NEVER stop hurting. It’s called PVPS. Absolute nightmare.

Healing is mostly going just fine. Overall pain/soreness is fairly dull. Just a slight bruise on the left side that I almost thought was just shadow.

Anyways, I had the no scalpel version with just the one opening right beneath the penis. He put one stitch there just to be safe.

I’m noticing a painful tightness/tugging feeling when I have lifted my penis a little too far to apply ointment to the area. I guess I’m just hoping you can tell me that this is normal and it will loosen over time. Otherwise, I could see that tightness/tugging being a problem during erections stretching that area a bit.

Had my vasectomy last Wednesday. It self went fine as far as I know but I'm in absolute agony. Got some briefs to help with support but they are doing very little. I'm in pain after a few minutes walking and due back work tomorrow 🙃

Also how long did it take some of you to ejaculate after? Was there anything unexpected? Doctor told me by Monday I should be fine but ive not had a single erection since and all honestly I don't even want to "cum"

Guys who have had it done do you have any advice?

Thank you!

This is already a vulnerable space. I’m 24 hours post op, how do you guys avoid the water splashing from pooping or what do you do once you’re in that situation 😢
