Got one when I turned 40, one of the best things I’ve ever done. Women love it, no condoms, just creampies all day. (Obviously, still get tested for STDs) Don’t have to worry about kids.
Didn’t even hurt, the worst part was smelling my jizz tubes being burnt shut. Had a dull pain for a day or two, that was it. And insurance paid for it!
Don’t ruin your life with an accidental 18 year prison sentence, get snipped today! 🤣
Yes, got mine after my 2nd kid was born. Definitely a good choice for me and my wife. Neither of us like condoms and every horminal birth control she’s taken has caused more problems than they were worth.
Yep.
Don’t have to worry about bringing a human into a worse world than I am in.
Yes I have a vasectomy. I have two sons and my partner and I were done having kids. The procedure was easy and mostly painless. Healing was quick. The worst part was after I scheduled it I for calls asking why I was getting the procedure and asking a lot of invasive questions, for the record I live in Iowa.
Been thinking about it, but read too many horror stories about recovery. Don’t know who to trust anymore.
They said tonsils removal would be okay,.wisdom teeth removal would be fine. Both were atrocious experiences.
I’m afraid of anything remotely like that for my downstairs.
If you look in my post history you’ll find my story. Short of getting my balls chopped completely off, mine went as badly as one could possibly go.
It sucked a little, but 1 year later and absofuckinglutely no regerts.
Get it done, then you can join the rest of us and LAUNCH ARCING ROPES OF JISM ALL OVER THIS MOTHERFUCKER!
PEACE!
Seriously though, do it. It’s the best decision I ever made, bar none.
I’m one of those “horror stories”, the 3% who have post-procedure pain (dull ache) for the 1st year, and 5% of those whose pain continues after.
And still, no regrets. The occasional dull ache is SO worth the benefits.
No
I have multiple partners, so condoms are mandatory for STI prevention. And even if a condom breaks, my SO takes the pill (for hormonal reasons) and my other partners are men. So, there’s no risk of pregnancy.
Yes. Got a dog, realized that responsibility was my limit and the heightened liability/cost of a child would send me to an early grave. Never desired kids anyways so snippy snippy!
I got it done at 35, it went pretty well and I was into work that night with an ice pack on my nuts. I booked it when I had a month of desk work instead of being on the floor doing lifting.
There was a small complication, I had swelling in one testes and had to go in a month later to get an anti-inflammatory injection directly into the ball, it is still a bit more large in the epididymis.
I had one done at 27 because I ever wanted kids. Had to fight with some doctors before one agreed to do it at that age. Unfortunately, insurance didn’t cover it, and I had to pay around 600€. But the ease of mind is priceless. I can only recommend getting a vasectomy to everyone who’s thinking about it!
I got one as soon as Roe v. Wade was overturned, but I have already thought a long while about it due to having bad lungs, a bad heart, and bad eyes. My parents have to be cousins, I swear…best decision I ever made though, that peace of mind is unmatched.
My mate had a botched vasectomy a few years back, they even tried again and couldn’t get it done for some reason.
I still brought over a bag of frozen peas and a ‘sorry for your loss’ card for him though.
I was planning to get one but later I realised that I was trans and hrt makes you infertile too. lmao
Two for one, good on you
Yes. When we had our last kid my wife got her tubes tied and told the doctor that she was getting me fixed as well. He said, “That isn’t necessary.” and she replied, “Yes, it is.” She wanted to make sure that I didn’t get anyone else pregnant. Apparently I’m a dog.
Yes 1.5 years ago. Not bad but I do have dull ball pain if ejac frequency is greater than every 48 hours. Not a big deal for me approaching 40. But overall would not recommended to anyone in their 20’s or early 30’s with a high libido.
That’s rough anyways. Is that a common side effect? I had mine done at planned parenthood. I was out for a few days and this subsided after a couple months.
It’s fairly common for closed tubes, and less common but not too rare for open-ended procedures.
Yes: I had a pregnancy scare with a girl when I was in my 20s. She didn’t want kids, I was in love with her, and Washington had free vasectomies at the time. It was fast, fairly painless and prevented unwanted pregnancies
Fast forward 20 years when I realized I wanted kids. Turns out vasectomies are incredibly expensive to get reversed, there’s a tiny window in which it’s viable, and every other option for having kids (adoption, surrogacy) is incredibly out of reach
She has kids now
That’s very nearly my story. My ex wanted me to get one back in college. I wanted kids, so, that should have been a sign that things wouldn’t work out. Fortunately, I did not go through with it. Still don’t have any children. Still want them but, not in the cards right now.
Had thought about getting one more recently but the cost and middling success rate for reversal makes that a non-option for someone who still thinks they want kids.
Had one in my early 30s. No regrets at all. Highly recommend to anyone thinking about it
