constant pain. He told me it was the end of the vas all looked good
needs more time to heal. I can feel this giant knott and it is so sore,
still. What can I do? Help by Michael G Nov 16, 2007
Answer:
A well-recognized condition that occurs among
a small number of men after vasectomy, is known as post vasectomy pain syndrome.
It can begin immediately after the vasectomy or many months or even
years after vasectomy has been completed. Some studies report as high as one
third of men after vasectomy have some type of lingering discomfort. Other studies
report that the frequency of post vasectomy pain is one case in thousands.
So trust your doctor. Usually doctors are right. If your pain persists you may ask for
other opinion.
Question:
I was wondering if you could help me with a kind of embarrassing question. My husband had a vasectomy
about 4 years ago. (private and embarrassing details were removed) Any idea if this is recanalization or
something else?
by Samantha Oct 24, 2007
Answer:
Technically, vasectomy means to cut or tie off the two tubes that carry sperm out of the testicles and
recanalization is very rare. Our advice is to have a test to see if sperm is active or not.
Question:
I had a vasectomy yesterday at 5:00 pm. I had the non-sclapel method
and feel great. No issues as of now. I wanted to have sex with my wife
at about 9:00 and everything seemed to work well enough to do that but
the wife insisted that I don't do it. I'm not concerned about the
pregnancy risk I'm just concerned would it cause physical issues to me
if I were to have an orgasm less than a day or two after procedure
or would that cause problems inside me. I can hold off but if I get an
erection and feel good why not go ahead and do it? Am I wrong? by CD Oct 24, 2007
Answer:
You can have sex as soon as you're comfortable but it is advisable to wait about a week.
Remember for the first 15-20 ejaculations sperm will still be present in your system,
so use another form of contraception until semen analysis shows that sperm are no longer
present in your seminal fluid.
