    The nip and consequences

    Vasectomy raises risk of lethal prostate cancer, study shows

    Harvard scientists analysed the medical records of nearly 50,000 men and found that those who had the operation were 10% more likely to be diagnosed with the disease.

    The study revealed a stronger link with the most serious forms of prostate cancer, with rates of advanced or lethal disease rising by 20% in men who had the procedure. The danger seemed to be highest among men who had a vasectomy before the age of 38.

    I guess that the best approach it is not panic and monitoring often.

    Since you're well over that, you should be pretty safe if you decide to have it done now......

    Be warned, the consequences will be orders of magnitude worse than bring home another Land Rover

    No, best approach is to be married for 39 years, then child producing is much less of a problem. Unless you want to chase younger women, but who wants to go thru that again. After you have mastered the violin, why try to learn the ukulele, Bob
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    I have known two men who had the snip and later received an unexpected addition to the family. No, not failed surgery, but Mrs. playing away games and being a bit careless.
