It's not even a day stay ... it's an outpatient procedure.

As to vasectomies and divorces, your logic is a little loose.  There are lots of divorces out there, and most of the men in them are probably unsnipped.

Good luck.

As far as the comment about tubal ligations requiring an overnight stay?  Where the heck is that happening?  I had a tubal 15 years ago and was out after about 8 hours (they kept a bit longer than normal because they thought I wasn't coming out of the anesthesia fast enough).  It was outpatient surgery, and I was only sore for a few days.  I scheduled it on a Friday, took Monday off, was back to work on Tuesday.  I was a little sore but my biggest complaint was that they bloat you up and it takes a few weeks before your clothes will fit your waistline comfortably.

I had it done in April.  First test of two, I came back with no swimmers or sinkers!  Getting the next one soon.

As for pain, it did hurt, but only for that weekend mostly, then was a bit sore for about a week - basically it felt like someone had kicked me in the nuts 5 minutes ago, but it lasted longer.  Plus, "Jim & the twins" looked like a grapefruit with a nose for a bit.  I may have exasperated my healing time though, cause we had sex after a couple of days. 

Good luck!

Asherdelampyr,

I have 4 friends who had a vasectomy and all of them recovered very quickly and went back at work right away. The worst symptom reported by any of them was some soreness for 1 day.

They were all fine in the hard cock dept.

I got snipped about 15 years ago. We'd been married for almost 10 years, and we were quite sure that we didn't want kids. The cost of me getting done was far cheaper than getting her tubes tied, and the risks are actually about the same as getting a wisdom tooth out. (minimal, at worst.) Yes, sex goes up following this, simply because you've cut the risks of sex in half. All you have to worry about are STD's at that point.

Oh, and when you go in, ask for introvenious vallium... that stuff is GREAT!

Oh man, you're not kidding.  I was given IV valium for oral surgery a few years back I can easily see why people would become IV drug abusers.

thanks bipolarbear, Ill have to remember that :)

as to the question of if I am sure, the answer is yes... I have waaayyy to many heriditary conditions (from too many of my ancestors marrying cousins) to responsibly create life in any way, I have one UM that seems to have only got my light sensitivity issues, and that is more than enough for me... if I ever want more, it would be a lot more healthy for me to adopt. I realize im young, and that makes it seem like I havent lived enough to know, but rest assured, I have given this years of thought :)

So, I am looking at getting a vasectomy, and I wanted to hear from other people that had the procedure done/medical types that know... what are the risks, what kind of things should I keep in mind? Any advice would be most appreciated

Been there doen that right after my first child.

Sex drive is not diminished. They are still producing testosterone. Get em cut off then you have problems. Mine offered to remove em completely as a joke.
The doc talks to you then gives you a few days and talks to you again to make sure you want to.
It's expected for you to realize that it's permenant. Not quite true but that's what they want you to keep in mind anyway.
It's an out patient surgery. You're awake with a local.
They may need to cut you twice but the doc tries to do it through one cut (I ended up with two).
You go home wear a jock strap laid up in bed fro 3 days with ice on your testicles to let teh welling down.
Then you can get out of bed pretty much you'll be sore and tender but you still wear the cup for a week i think it was. (This was 13 years ago for me BTW.)
After a week i thinj it is you need to clean the pipes. After a month i think it is you get checked out to make sure the procedures good (Samples in a cup).
Potential complications reattachment. Yup it could reconnect not likely but has been known to happen.
Testicular cancer risk is increased. I think prostate cancer as well.
Also you could end up with a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epididymis epididymitis something I ended up with. this can be REALLY bad for some others not so much. Meaning you get a pain in one or both testicles from the epididymis swelling. For me i've found if I don't get off often enough it hurts like hell is sore and tender. A good release solves the problem. I've taken atibiotics for it and it's never healed. My last docotr said it's just something you haveto live with if it's not excruciating. whcih for me it's not more an annoyqance really. If it's excruiating or all the time you got to get it fixed. I coudl get it fixed the mild form i have but it's not worth the cost IMHO.

That's all I know as to potential problems.

am 70 and had a vasectomy when was 29, hasn't slowed me down yet, matter of fact makes rather nice not having to worry about my younger subs getting a present. Has never had any effect on my erections! Go for it.

Check this out if you don't have insurance:

The other thing you might consider (assuming you haven't had it done yet) is the extent of your vas removal. I wanted to make absolutely certain that there was no chance of the tube finding each other and growing back together again. Believe it or not, cases of this actually happening are NOT all that rare. So, I elected to have almost a full 3/4 inch of the vas taken out, the ends cauterized, folded over, and tied off like you would a ship's mast... It cost an extra $200 to do it this way, but I wanted to be sure.

The only side effect I've ever noticed: whenever I'm stuck on a plane with a couple of fussy, screaming kids, I find myself muttering, "Thank you, Doctor S-... Thank you for everything you've done for me." ...and make a note to send him a Christmas card.

in our family, there's a guy that had a vasectomy after they had four kids.  number 5 came along 7 years later...gives a bit weight to your idea about having them take out that extra little bit, just to be sure nothing grows back together and starts functioning again...

i had it done 12 years ago... its an easy thing,  policlinical  .. just get a tight pair of swimmin trousers with you for afterwards  and take a cab home  or let someone drive you,, it will heal within a week or so.. and after two months you will have to check if there are no life sperms left... until that time you can still be vurtile
