Well I've noticed that people on this forum like to talk about all the stuff they have added. Anyone keen to tell their tale about having something removed?

As the title suggests the wife has decided that 2 kids are enough and as she went through childbirth its my turn now. She does also point out that she is not pushing me into it and it is my decision. However, as I do not like the alternative separate bed option........

So fess up, who has had what done, how long ago and what have been the consequences?

had mine done 2 years ago, only took half an hour under local. my wife watched on with almost evil intent:twisted:. the most painfull thing about the procedure is the needle at the start.(you can get it done under a general,more $) mild bruising for about 10 days. all's good.:) no problems
one less thing to worry about. cheers ben

Oh dear..:(
I was hoping I'd never have to discuss this.

The term is neutered.

Since I was neutered almost 7 years ago, I find I am calmer, fight less, am quieter, less aggressive, have a controlled libido and spray less.:D

Of course there are side effects, my voice is higher and I have developed breasticles.:o

On the plus side, I had a full general anaesetic and utilised the maximum recovery time. My good wife doesn't require oral contraceptive and we can 'go at it like animals' worry free.:p

Do it, I think you'll find there are many men who have done it and most go on to lead normal lives.:wasntme:

Hope this helps

34 years now, and my voice hasn't changed.

Never had a single negative repercussion, and was assured by the doctor at the time that I would probably suffer less from old man's diseases. So far so good at 62 and still "the last man standing".

Got done 5 years ago and all good and no issues at all. Had the same discussion with my other half and at the time it made sense cause IF we changed our minds and wanted more kids it was easier for me to get a reversal.....though I went general rather than local and was up again in 10days.

'Bout 10 years ago.

One or two complications. The first was having a bit of a problem with bleeding as soon as I stood up after the op. (A memory of the doctor shouting "We've got a bleeder!!", taking a firm grip on my testicles, and almost throwing me back on the bed, whilst I'm trying to fill my shoes with blood).
The second was, without wanting to boast too much, trying to find underpants to fit.
"Take away the pain, but leave the swelling", I think is the phrase.:p

But on the plus side, I can now sing along with all the Bee Gees' songs, and make all the dogs within a 10 km radius cringe when I scream.

Yep, got done about 8 yrs ago..

lying on a bed watching a bloke about to stick a needle in yer nads is the most terrifying part and does little to impress the nurse..:o

Getting the needle is the most painfull part..:(

Playing on it and getting the attention from the better half is the best part..:p

Walking around in a pair of jocks ( for 24hrs ) packed like John Holmes is the priceless part

Even got a freedom club badge from the Doc..

Doesnt even get thought about these days

I am sure there are a few people on here who have worked with livestock who would cheerfully do the job for free. We could make it an Aulro fundraising event, charge admission, auction the rights to perform the job, get in a lingerie hostess and raffle some meat trays etc.

Got mine done a few months ago. Had the same comments from SWMBO... She did childbirth now it's my turn! We have two kids and thats plenty!

I got it done under full general, as well as local in the nad area to minimize bruising and pain afterward. Took advantage of 8 days off work, simply cos I could. I got paid out by my colleagues who did it under a local, in the chair in the local medical centre but pffft who cares, I had over a week off and they didn't! One of my mates even had the 15yr old work experience chick in there watching.

My surgeon was absolutely fabulous. I had a fair bit of swelling and briusing but generally perfect. It was all negotiated with SWMBO for a week or two bed rest which was simply the best ever! Sat in bed watching movies, surfing eBay and reading aulro threads!

The only downside is when I had a sperm test 2 month later there were still live ones there! Aaaaaah! Well they can stay alive in the testy for upto 6months eating on the nutrients in the tube so don't imagine it's instant.

Other mates have done the "oh no way, no snip for me" crap.... But it is totally reversible, well mine is, some aren't. Mine is also got no chance of refusing together and getting live ones again. On this, be careful you don't "just" get snipped or the loose tubes can refuse and disaster in the form of more babies! My dr snipped, then took a section of tube out so naturally it couldn't refuse (unless under surgery) and he also bent the end of one tube back on itself and put a clip on it so really no chance of accidents in the future!

Anyway, ENJOY!

Most dr's who do this are nicknamed "Dr Two-bricks"! Ooooh painful thinking about it.

And another thing.... The day before I had it done I was running a staff mtg with data projector on the big screen and doing demonstrations etc etc. Then i clicked on my email, yep on the big screen, and my line manager decides to chat over gmail, yep, on the big screen, with a room full off men, women, singles, old, young, the full deal and what did he "chat" me? ...."so... How's ping and pong going? Won't be no pinging soon"!!! And the room erupted into embarrassing fits of laughter! Mind you, he's stunted as he got his done with the help of the local 15yr old work exp girl.

Had it done june last year, and i must be the only bloke to have had an absolute nightmare :eek: . Surgery went fine and apart from the obligatory bag of peas i thought all was going well untill 2 days later my gonads were the size and colour of a large eggplant, 3 days later i got a burning sensation and had to go to the emergency ward at local hospital.
Some antibiotics and i was on my way again but later that night my nuts were on fire and i couldnt stand still i was in that much pain so went to gp next morning. My wounds had opened slightly and pus was oozing out so gp had to scrub my open wounds and gave me stronger antibiotics. Took over a month to fully heal and nearly 18 months later still have discomfort.
Now i could with all of that for not having to put the missus thru the female equivalent but then about 4 months ago she had to have surgery and they gave her a hysterectomy as well :mad:.

gonads were the size and colour of a large eggplant.

Hi,
had to photograph a patient on the wards with similar, he was a bit shy and reticent about the photographs (for medical student teaching).

I was able to relax him a little with the tale of the South African Army Sergeant.
All of his privates were black.

Had mine done 30 odd years ago with local anaesthetic by a mate at work. Yes well he was a surgeon, and I worked in a Medical School.
Only problem was the op room was freezing and things weren't as relaxed as under general.
No probs though.

1980's when I worked in the heavy machinery game, one of my colleagues had the job done at a prominent Brisbane private hospital. Unfortunately for him he got a golden staph infection in the wound. He was in the hospital with rainbow footballs resting on a soft cushion whilst receiving antibiotic and painkiller drips.

His sensitive and caring colleagues got a huge castellated nut from a dozer, painted it Mustang Yellow (He was the Mustang rep.), gift wrapped it and took it to the hospital. Accompanying was a spare parts req. indicating that one nut LH and one nut RH had been ordered, one nut RH supplied and one nut LH back ordered. Nursing staff were highly amused.

Yeah it is no big deal but as suggested before there can be side effects.
I had mine done about a decade ago, same discussion with the missus.
The doc knew I was flying to perth a few days later but was ok about that, I was given a general, no options given for local.

Anyway, day before flying to Perth the left had swollen a bit so I saw my gp and he said it was a slight internal bleed that would stop as soon as the pressure equalised, don't worry.

So off I went to Perth, folks, by the time I got off the plane I was in agony. Yes the bleeding will stop when the pressure equalises but you have absolutely no idea just how much that sack can stretch before it does equalise, I am talking one side only here thankfully, if it were both you would have thought I had a regulation NRL ball in my pants! Went to the brothers house had pain killers, off to bed.

About midnight I was in a cold sweat and called an ambulance which took me to RPH. By the way, glad I was in Perth and not Sydney because they didn't have any rampant staph problems there and quarantined me for a short time to make sure I didn't bring any in.
Yep excited doctor taking happy snaps from every angle, he even thought there might be necrosis going on because it was so black.

So after a week of my two week holiday in Perth spent in hospital full of antibiodics and every young nurse and doctor in a 100 mile radius checking out my bits every morning I was finally able to leave the hospital.

I still have a visible scar from the infection in the would and sometimes the sack gets itchy but other than that I have had no problems.

What I am saying here is that every operation can go wrong so you should not plan to go anywhere after it, my doc should really have postponed til after my trip.

But all is well and I will bet not many of you have had anywhere near as many young women talking about your genitals as I have and comming back to see them again and again :D

And yes, the missus had to have surgery about 18 months later and they did a hysterectomy................bugga

In the early 1970's such procedures were illegal in Qld. A mate got it done and was given a lapel badge of the male symbol of circle and arrow with a bit cut out of the circle. He found that the ladies came on to him when the meaning of the badge was explained. His younger brother who was firing live ammunition thought this was pretty good and wanted to borrow the badge.

He should have got his Mrs. snipped instead as she got a bit careless and conceived a child after he had the snip.

This happened to another mate of mine. He was told by the offending partner that two of their three other children were not sired by him before he had the op.

I was "done" about 7 years ago, right after we found out our second kid was twins. As long as you get a general, and there's places who'll bulk bill it as a day surgery procedure if you shop around. Had 10 days off as work didn't want anything happening while I was there. Never had an issue and even the scars which were all of less than 5mm long have disappeared.

One of the guys I used to work with however had a local, they couldn't get the tube out as it was twisted so opened him up under a local. Started to wear off before they finished. On top of that, and because they opened the bag, he had about a month off and even then second day back at work opened it up again. He passed out on the shop floor in a pool of blood and no one else would grab hold of it to stop it bleeding out. Went real nasty, had two months in hospital, lost one of them and was off for eight months in total.

If the lady does not want to have more children with ANYBODY! then she should get the snip. This is the logical solution. Marriages/relationships do break down, and some ladies do philander and are often a bit careless.

I don't see what the issue is, I went in between shifts. It's not as if your getting your penis and testicles surgically removed flipped inside out and a vagina made from the remnants of your manhood. Thats just wrong.

The procedure isn't an issue, but the local didn't kick in on one side and I was heard screaming 3 rooms away when the scalpel went in.

Complications, I was pushing it a tad to much at the time due to the wife being 8 months pregnant and having to look after the two other kids. Subsequently I managed to get an infection in one of the wounds, you haven't lived until you have experienced a hard red nut that squirts puss when touched. Trip to the docs to show her my swollen sack, a dose of antibiotics later and all was ok.

I admit 3 months later it was a tad embarrassing walking down the road with a sample jar full of man juice to take to the pathologist. Getting the sample in the jar is a bit of an art form, unfortunately the wife didn't believe me when I said the lab takes into account for a certain amount of Saliva in the sample and could differentiate between the two fluids so I was left playing in a one man band.

Honestly it was one of the best things I ever did.

So...... everyone is saying how many years ago they had it done, but how old were you at the time? The word used to be that doctors were reluctant until you reached a certain, varying age.

I was 28, initially the doctor was a tad reluctant but when I pointed out that we had a pigeon pair already, another on the way. We don't want anymore kids and it was obvious that the birth control methods we were using cannot be trusted, She was convinced and wrote a referral. It was either a vasectomy or buying shares in a coat hanger business.

I admit 3 months later it was a tad embarrassing walking down the road with a sample jar full of man juice to take to the pathologist. Getting the sample in the jar is a bit of an art form, unfortunately the wife didn't believe me when I said the lab takes into account for a certain amount of Saliva in the sample and could differentiate between the two fluids so I was left playing in a one man band.

Honestly it was one of the best things I ever did.

I asked the Doc what the time was and was told it was 30 "shots" to clear it out or about 3 months...

Told the new bride it was a challenge :cool: (And that worked)...

She took the sample in for testing a week later - All clear! (pun intended)

And you can go the 'pull out and grab the jar' method :angel:

After 3 girls, we decided that with me at age 38, I would go.

No dramas from the docs at all.

As it turns out, SWMBO had her bits out for medical reasons early last year. By comparison, my teeny weeny little op was nothing.

She lost a lot of blood during & after the surgery, and then a week later, came down with Sepsis, which very nearly claimed her life. All worked out well in the end thou.

So, if you are deciding if it should be you or her that gets de-sexed, then consider the difference between a minor procedure, and a major operation. Even if a guy has to have a general... :eek:

Bag of peas waiting for you IMMEDIATELY you come out
Rest for 2-3 days after.

Doing it again, I'd add Arnica (anti bruising) tablets from the chemist (check with doc). They do wonders for the kids' knocks and bumps.

My mate waited for his wife to go to woolies afterwards, 40min and a full shop later she returns to a very uncomfortable hubby!

My experience was very similar. We had to drive about an hour to get it done. Just before going in for the snip I pointed out to the missus that the Land Rover's low on fuel and that she'd need to fuel up. She didn't, and it was the last thing I was thinking about after I came out. So half way home, there we were sitting by the side of the highway, she feeling a little embarrased and me wriggling about looking for the least uncomfortable position for my aching wobbly bits. Eventually someone from her work brought a gerry can of diesel. And they're still laughing about it.

Called the wife when i got down to the car afterwards and could hardly talk. felt like my nuts were in my throat and damn glad i had cruise to drive home on the freeway.

Whats worse is the old fella ran away in fright. Now that is NO way to impress the hot nurse hanging onto it for the doc. Took about 4 hours before i could coax him out enough from under foreskin to take a pee.

Or to take arms against a sea of troubles

Hi Trobbo,
Welcome to the worlds largest men only club.

Sorry to hear it was not a smooth procedure. Mine was similar with me hitting the roof when he started on the second one. I have had a bit of on/off ache due to some scarring but that has all but gone now.

My advice is sit down and take it easy, all the horror stories are about people who did too much too soon. So seriously chill out for a week and give yourself time to heal.

ps notice how women have no sympathy for the pain men experience due to vasectomy.

I don't know why precisely I chose to view the thread but upon reading it (and indulging in some not unsympathetic giggles) I am mightily proud of most of you. You have made a decision which relieves the duty that traditionally falls to the woman, having to pop pills every day of her sexual life to prevent unwanted pregnancies, constant chemical onslaught to her system or having to go in for MAJOR snip snips herself and being at far greater physical risk (assuming she can get them to agree anyway)

I'm not sure why some think of it as loss of 'manhood' though... its simply a rediversion of traffic from the male area :/ Noone gets emasculated, no body parts are lost. It is NOT gelding, or castration, Hormones are still there - and anyone who defines manhood as an unaltered connection to an extremity might need to re-evaluate his standards.

We are past the stage in human development where we need to go forth and multiply, once a couple have the customary few brats on the ground there is no need for more just because of a partner swap (if the male wanted more children, he wouldnt have got the snip, and it isn't the new wifeys right to try twist his arm against his original decision, and if he backflips an earlier decision just to keep the woman happy, how is that the right mindset to create more family with?

So congrats to the Men who have gone ahead and survived it.

went and watched melbourne victory game last night. it was really good to get my mind off what was going on in between my legs and I was actually a lot more comfortable there than in the car. Isle seat legs spread wide.

relatively quiet day today, watched/graded a bunch of kids at the local soccer club for an hour (just standing).

And hopefully a quiet day tomorrow :angel: with the lads watching bathurst :twobeers:.

Michelle not sure I agree with your views about having the snip and then not having more kids with a new partner as I am sure that for most of us the decision to get the snip is a joint decision with our partners, just as having children is in the first instance. But thank you for your comments and endulgences of our hangups with our man hood. :)

just as well in succession.. imagine if it was all at once trying to maintain 3 families and households and missusses not knowing about the other missusses... Coulda had the snip done for free, with a carving knife, once one or more of them found out!

Crikey--That's going as my dad would say "where angels fear to tread"!

That stated I suppose you could say "Its in the genes"!

My brother who did a lot of UK family ancestry study, dug up (not operative word) the fact that one of our great great uncles had a family in Northampton. Then one in Hove Sussex, plus something of a common law arrangement in Chipping Norton Oxen all at the same time--Busy boy he was!:)

If you study a bit about in history its was fairly commonplace for women in the 19th and early 20th century to allow marital sex for procreation only.
The poor guy was then left to find it elsewhere!
It seems that it was a fairly widespread practice for a guy to have "a bit on the side" in middle and upper crust families. Talking to my mother in law in one of her lucid moments, she declared that her father a farmer in Idaho, had a widow women in the village that "looked after him" for many a year when his missus had shut the door so to speak. Got a big chuckle from her as she described the "detached menage a trois" so to speak!

This gave rise to hysteria in women often called the English Malady reference found in Bronte novels and best described when reading this-

History House: Why Only Women Get Hysterical (http://www.historyhouse.com/c/in_history/?hysteria)
Of coarse there are lost of articles on the subject of “hysterical paroxysm, which makes all sorts of "tittylating" :)reading about the Victorian era!
Dr. Swift's Cure for Hysteria (http://www.explorehistoricalif.com/hysteria.html)

Read on and enjoy something about the antics of our forefathers.

back to the docs today. little bit of an infection developing. Luckily I dont have elephant balls yet. Blue balls maybe but not elephant balls. :D

funny thing is that despite the infection, each day since the op it has been feeling a little bit better than the day before. Reckon I'm back to about 75% now, coming off a low of about 20% when I staggered out of the surgery and down the stairs, feet 6 feet apart, and white knuckles holding onto the banister. Geez that was a rough day!

Walking up hills is still a bit of an issue though.

i got snipped when i was 25
zero kids
went to work 6 hours later, not a good idea.
i had a local, i was awake for the whole thing, but the local wore off very quickly. when he went to do the second snip, the local had worn off. i jumped and he asked, oh, did you feel that? never mind, almost done. haha

Fascinating topic. Here's my story :eek:

I was snipped a few years ago while living overseas in Dubai. I wanted to allow my wife to come off the pill which she had been on for about 16 years -and apparently carries a cancer risk.

Maybe I'm just a wimp, but I found it an uncomfortable experience. Now I had read all the stuff online about how quick and easy it was -lunchtime visit to the GP and back to work- but in some parts of the world men never get the snip and so medical people don't really know much about the procedure. They expected me to take a general anaesthetic which I refused and was wheeled 'into theatre'. I actually felt the cutting and tugging and then when the sawbones dropped the clamp on the floor and lost the end, he had to go digging for it with a scapel to recover it and tie the knot. Blood everywhere.

Needless to say very heavily bruised and swollen, but after a couple of weeks good as new. On the plus side, the boss was very impressed by my stoicism going through with it :).

I was nuts getting it done overseas - but its a simple procedure and very difficult to stuff up too badly. Infection is the main issue.

Cheers

Tie the knot?

Don't they cauterise it.

You could do it at home with a stanley knife, soldering iron and a tube of superglue. ;)

I know exactly how you feel, 2 years on and i still have a little discomfort now and then from the folded over tubes in my nuts.

Like I said before, take it easy there is no need to rush. Over doing it increase the risk of complications.

Now on to the part that people who do talk about these thinks don't talk about. Cleaning out the pipes.....

It isn't quick. It isn't a couple of shots and you'll be clear. The Doc will give you three sample jars and then tell you later that you may need some more, depending on how big your reservoir is and how potent your punch. It is different for each person, but I had mine done December 2011 and I'm still waiting for the all clear. :o

Lets just say that my wife's and I dedication to contraception was not misplaced.

The doc told me its about 30 shots ;) before the pipes start to run clean...

My wife and I were recently married when I had mine done - already had a child each - so were still in the honeymoon stage :cool:

Took it as a bit of a challenge :angel:

Doc was surprised to see my wife and the container walk in the door! Fair to say, no swimmers after a week....

(Best week of my life - I must have used up all my "marital credits" because theres been a steep decline over 14 years.... :angel::angel::angel::angel:)

i had mine done 12 years ago the day after my 40th birthday, i had a local plus a shot of Valium so was "awake" for all of it and the wife holding my hand, dont remember the pretty nurse holding my other hand!.
no dramas as the Doc at Mount Gravatt had at the time done 28,000 of them, he sat me down in a room nearby after with a cuppa and some bickies with the ice pack (peas), after an hour he let me go and watched while i got into a neighbours car to be chauffeured home (no driving allowed) then it was 48hrs of doing nothing (and to do it as many times as possible to flush out the system) but watch videos, going for a pee and SWMBO swapping the bags on a regular basis (and for the only time) waiting on me hand and foot. Absolutely no dramas, best thing i ever did. Most of the men in i know have had the job done and report an easy time but then they breed them tough in the sunshine state :D;)
the wife wouldnt use the bags of peas afterwards as they had been defrosted too many times, well that was her excuse anyway.
i heard a story of a bloke who was warned to take it easy but drove to a wedding afterwards, danced all night, got on the drinks until plastered and then wondered why he woke up with 2 big black knackers!:twisted::wasntme:

Had it done 3 hours ago :eek:.
And yep only one side numb so more needle half way through. Doc agreed I'm a bleeder to so guaranteed bruising. Worst bit was the tugging as it triggered things deep inside that were attached caused my legs to spasm. Didn't manage to drive all the way home before it stafted wearing off. At least the car has cruise so not a lot of effort on the freeway.

No one touches my bits (At least with sharp implements) unless I'm well and truly out of it.

Got delivered, waited for (and on), knocked out, trimmed and returned & delivered back home.

Got a recheck and everythings still clear so all good.

When i had mine done,many years ago,the doctor started to cut before the anaesthetic started to work.I nearly jumped out of the chair!

Anyway,after that all good.

A bit of bruising afterwards,that was all.

yep, 34 years ago, "snip", 4 months after the birth of our third child, the doctor, a friend of ours got me to sign a form to the effect I would not sue him for assault, funny I thought, seeing as how I asked him to do it.
I believe it is the manly thing to do, it did not hurt, (much), the ladies go through a lot having kids and then for the next 21 (and beyond) years just being a mum, look at it as "a gift that keeps on giving".
And as for it being easily reversible, maybe, but a guy I know up here (second marriage to a "clucky" much younger bride), had it reversed about 2 years ago all up cost $10,000, a lot to pay to be about 70 years old at your daughters 21st.

good luck George. I'm still a bit sore on the right, mostly after sitting at my desk for most of the day. Always feels good in the morning after I have given it all a bit of space and rest.

Thanks but right now it is worse. Can't tell if the bruising has increased over night or not yet.

But yea women cop it worse than us.

Keep using the bag of peas for a couple of days.

It will help reduce the ache and remind you to slow down.

The nurse told me to wear up to two pairs of the tightest undies I could comfortably wear after the 'op', Her suggestions included speedos or even ladies undies with lots of elastic stuff in the fabric. The theory being, apply a pressure bandage to a wound. My good wife took it apon herself to get me adequately 'dressed' and so it was that I was at the bush dance the following night in perfect if snug comfort. The gentleman who snipped me was from the sub continent and had done thousands. I sat up and watched the procedure, and I'm still impressed with how he did it. That was about twenty years ago.

My advice is to start taking anti biotics so that bruising doesnt turn to infection, worst medical experience i've ever had.

Except for the surgeon and anaesthesist, all my medicos were female...and young...the nurse, op nurse, orderly, physio, trainee nurse, intern, all female.
I couldn't bear to go back in with multiple samples. I was afraid of all the sniggering and snide comments like 'great package there Mr Smith, look after it":p and "if you weren't married you'd be the one for me" :D Scared me s***ss it did. Wife and I decided on a strategy of emptying the pipes ourselves :wasntme:. Procedure must have worked though coz wife was never duffed up ever again.
Maybe I'll get tested one day.

I was started on them Friday morning so about 5 hours before the op. Chears for the advice. Still think it's worth it.

I know it's too late for you now George, but if I had my time over again I would have measured my bits before I went in. That way I wouldn't be sitting here now wondering if bits are still swollen or if they are back to normal size.

I'm on the anti biotics but have a constant feeling like I was hit in the nuts a couple of hours ago.

keep using the bags of frozen peas to reduce swelling and ache. If you got cream from the doc, use it and keep using it.

Take it easy - no heavy lifting, etc and you'll be fine in a couple more days.

I'd avoid the grog for a bit. Not that it will do any damage, just your likely to be a bit too active once the first couple take the edge away and that could lead to a really unpleasant morning after. :p
