PILL is NOT 100% and does NOTHING for STDS.

I know several peopel that ONLY used the pill, take a guess what, one has a kid and the other had a abortion.


Condom + Pill = about as safe as you can get and still have sex.

How was that pain? Did they do that little 2 or 3 hole vasectomy or did they open it up.

It was pretty bad actually. The only numbing/painkilling they gave me was ONE shot of lidocaine in the sack so I couldn't feel them cut my junk wide open (yes, they opened me right up). So I didn't feel the incisions on my bag but I felt EVERYTHING else.

They didn't even give me anything (prescription pain relievers) to take when I got home. :( As I understand it, they now do a much better job of numbing and they give you narcotics for the pain. Must be nice...

But it was worth it, 10 years of spontaneous, unrestricted sex has been wonderful. :heart:

My gf is on the pill but we still use condoms 95% of the time. Like someone else said, it's not 100% :(

Eli, I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but how old are you? Your sweety looks kinda young so I had assumed that you are too.

Just remember: Antibiotics renders the pill ineffective. How do I know this? My friend now has a son as a result of this...

Trojan makes one that has something like a "pleasure mesh" or something. It is more loose fitting around the tip, and that adds a lot of sensation for the guy. My girlfriend has been on the pill for a while, so I haven't had to buy any for a long time and I don't quite remember the names.
