I'm pretty sure you can still skeet after the sugury...?

You just have no fertilizing capabilities in it.

Am I right guys?

Yes you can. It's a slightly different color, but otherwise no change. People who make those comments don't have a clue what a vasectomy is.


That's what I thought. I would rather conceive a child every year than to give up my ability to shoot.

skeet skeet skeet :laugh:

When I got mine done a little over a year ago I just laid back on the couch and kept it iced down enjoyed the pain killers they gave me a played a lot of tiger woods golf. Even though you'll be feeling fine if you keep them iced down don't try and do anything for the whole weekend and you'll be fine. A friend of mine thought he was feeling fine 2 days after he got his done and didn't rest too much and his swelled up like grapefruits.

I'm 30, I have three children and I don't want any more.

They're expensive for one, and since I have contributed three, there has been a net gain in humanity, I see no reason to continue :)

I have cast my seeds to the wind, let them fall where they may. :D

not mentioning the lack of need for condoms :p

Have fun, but get back in the saddle again soon after, but wear protection. You can still supply navy personnel for up to 6 months after.
ROFL

actually they say it takes like up to 40 ejeculations before its empty. so they tell you to have sex daily before your next appointment (well at least mine did)

hmmm, never liked the idea of someone (doctor) doing anything with my body. hopefully, with god's grace i'll die before having any operation of any sort whatsoever. i am more than happy with a (0nd0m.

just my thoughts. good luck on your operation!!!

Condom isn't a dirty word... and I'll bet if you ever try it without one, you'll agree that there's a night and day difference.

My only advice is don't cough during the op. Post-op, while on that laptop, no pr0n. The swelling could be painful to the swelling ;)

I don't mind the condom that much really, my wife finds them more uncomfortable and distracting than I do, in fact. She's far more eager for me to get this done than I am, but I'm all for it too.... I'm just very lazy :D

ice packs check
extra pillows check

get some decent pain meds just in case
i recommend hydromorphone or dilaudid which is a generic of it

dont do anything that can strain the area down there
including no sex, no jerkin, no pr0n, no golf, no nothing

after i got mine done i basically laid down for a few hours with the ice pack on
elevated a bit and i was kool

i had the procedure done on friday back to work on monday
painless and issue free, no more monkies for me

:laugh:

It's a vasectomy...he's not becoming a eunuch.

alright, I'm back... Damn, I feel gipped. I did not get and was not offered any pain medication, when I asked, I was told extra strength tylenol :(

So here I am laying in bed icing... and I'm already pretty bored. :(

Anybody got any good flash games?

The operation itself was a total breeze... I'd say a dental claening is more uncomfortable... I'll let you know when the local wears off...

I found a bag of frozen peas to be move effective than an ice pack since it can be molded to the shape you want more easily than a bag of ice cubes, and can easily be re-frozen as needed. Just make sure you don't mix it up and eat the product when you are done.

why? they're in a bag. It's not like the Peas are actually touching your sack-al region
