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.

    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.
