I posted this in Medical Issues. Your answer was not what I was looking for.

A few friends and family of mine has had it done. They haven't had any complications. Both my dad and brother were back to work in 2 days and they work construction.

Find a good doctor and ask a bunch of questions during the mandatory sit down. If he can't answer all your questions up to your standards then find one who can.

With all due respect, I believe Blueracer has every right to ask this question. ATS is an "Alternative Topics" website and it too me was placed in the correct "Medical Issues" forum.

This thread may be helpful to other members that may undergo the same procedure and are looking for the same answers. It is comments like yours that deter other members from asking such questions.

I've known people who've had vasectomies.

The swelling is the worst.

If you go for one, make sure you bring ice packs. Grab an instant-activation kind just in case because you will be sore.

Plus the swelling can cause other problems and the cold helps to get that under control.

Now by getting a vasectomy you might not get more sex. In fact, your subconscious will clue in instantly that it is shooting blanks and this can affect your mindset, moods etc.

Your very reason to be sets nestled in that sac. Right now, your mind and instincts are geared to getting the contents to fallopian tubes - but when you take that away, it will have an effect. (Even if you already have children)

You might become a carefree stud and git yerself some more often

...But then again you might not, as you will have realized that your amorous ways were propelled by an instinctual, subconscious desire to procreate and extend your line and not based purely on pleasure, as you mistakenly thought in your younger days.

Even in old age, there is something satisfying about knowing that one has the capability to repopulate the planet, and can access it at any time without having to undergo surgical procedures.

This is a big decision, and it will have consequences. So if you decide to go ahead with it, you should consider them all - and also have cold packs at the ready.
