  • In this video, I go over what to expect after your vasectomy procedure. Usually, most guys are most interested in when they can have intercourse again. That answer is about 7 days, which is also how long a guy should not lift weights or ride a bike.
    I'll go over recommendations for:
    - diet
    - pain control
    - ice
    - jock strap or underwear
    - semen check following your procedure.
    Hopefully, this video will give you some info so you can plan out your recovery after your vasectomy procedure.

    I just had my Vasectomy last Friday. This is day 7 for me and recovery was smooth. I didn’t have any pain but slight soreness so definitely ice as that helps a lot. Most importantly I just got a round in with my wife and everything was normal no pain and the most importantly the finish was better then ever. Goodluck if you are thinking about getting it done as i recommend it for sure if your done having kids.

  • @Tech_Support404
    @Tech_Support404 3 года назад +5

    I have 2 questions:
    1.- What if I don't have a stich? - the doctor that did the procedure said that there was no need and it would close on its own
    2.- In my case, 3 months does not equal 20 ejaculations; my wife and I are very active and 20 ejaculations would take a month roughly, should I still wait 3 months or maybe 2? Is it more of a time thing or a number of ejaculations thing?

      Hey Jonathon, I know it's been a year since you got your vasectomy, but I just got mine and just had a couple follow up questions for you.
      1. Does the sex still feel just as good?
      2. Are you still averaging about 20 times of sex a month with your wife?
      Thanks jonathon, you're an inspiration.

    • @ryansontz2536
      @ryansontz2536 Месяц назад

    6 hours into day 1.
    Slight bleeding from incision site. Using a dry 4x4 to cover incision site. Using ice in a zip lock with that inside a thin sock. No swelling. Pain is a dull ache. I'm tolerating te cold from the ice pack better than I thought. Looks like the doc snipped about 1.25 inches of vas deferens tune...

    Did it all- still a mess. The absolute worst thing I’ve ever done- been well over a year- massive regret and it put an incredible strain on my marriage.
    I felt like a secondary concern during mine it was treated like a woman’s health issue
    The minimisation of the risks and the flat out lies I was told are what keep going round in my head as they made it impossible for me to make an informed decision.
    Even when this goes well it still damages the male body and has long term health implications.
    Thankfully a reversal has all but eliminated the pain but my heads still a mess.

Now I feel like a kind of lump between the base of my tool and my left testicle. It's in the sack but closer to my body. My follow up is Monday. Hope this isn't too bad.
