I am considering a vasectomy.
Men: have any of you done this? What was your experience like?
Women: what are your thoughts on this? How does a mans' ability or inability to get one pregnant factor into YOUR relationship with him?
Interested in the lush community thoughts on the subject.
A vasectomy is a minimally invasive surgery. You do need to remember that you will still be shooting "live" rounds up to 90 days after the surgery. As far as how I, as a woman, would feel about being with a man who'd had a vasectomy? I don't think it would make a difference, unless we were quite serious and wanted to expand our family.

I had this done about 4yrs ago. I was in and out in day missed about 3-4 days of work. I didn't have any swelling and just slept how ever was comfy. Ill try and answer any other questions you have.
I've never had a vasectomy but I am sterile. I lost the ability to ejaculate after surgery related to testicular cancer. This happened when I was 23 and as I didn't want this to happen, my feelings are probably different. Primarily, I never had children. I'm assuming you already do. That to me was the worst part of it. I would rather have lost an arm than my ability to be a father, in retrospect. I don't know how old you are, but I'm 51, and it hurts more every year.
Okay, sexually, it's actually been great. Unlike a vasectomy, I don't normally shoot anything. Maybe a bit of precum, but that's it. Once in a blue moon I'll get a good thick wad, but almost never. Even that is sterile. Believe me, if I could have been a father, it would have happened somewhere along the line.
My partners have almost always liked it in the long run. Not leaving a mess inside her and her knowing I was as safe as a condom has actually been a plus, according to them. They missed it at first, but not usually for long.
Everything feels just as good. My orgasms lack nothing in sensation. One thing I have noticed is that when I do shoot something, I can actually feel it moving up my shaft. I never noticed that before my issues began. It really is a cool sensation
Had it done many years ago, as my wife wanted to stop taking the pill. My experience was the same; no swelling, just a few days keeping quiet, so to speak.
I had a vasectomy in 1976, because my had a negative RH Factor and her Doctor recommended we not risk any future complication. We already had 2 kids, they did not recommend a third pregnancy because of the risks. I have had no ill effects from the vasectomy. I'm 66 now and still have an active sex life. No long term compli
cations so far.
I have been sniped for a # of years - did it after we were done having kids. It was pretty easy. I have smallish balls - and the doctor suggested because of that, I should go for the full anesthesia vs. just the local - said it might be a bit uncomfortable if I did not.
When I got home after doing it, spent the day with a packet of frozen peas off and on my nuts lol... I think it is a pretty common suggestion to use frozen peas - it worked great. I really didn't feel much pain.
Even though the process involves snip, remove and soldering (that last one was a surprise lol) - you need to get tested - it can connect again apparently...
For us, it was the best choice vs. tubes removed or going back to any sort of birth control. Glad I did it - and had no issues.
Had it done years ago. I remember it was a Friday morning. Spent the rest of Friday in bed with frozen peas on my crotch. I was walking a little gingerly on Saturday, and was fine by Sunday.
Did it because I was done having kids. Would do it again in a heartbeat. I never hsve to worry about getting anyone pregnant.
Red is the color of sex and signs that say Do Not Enter

A woman opinion here. I see no difference in function. In fact, it's better because we wasn't worried about pregnancy and enjoy sex more.
I had a vasectomy nearly 42 years ago and have had no ill affects, sex drive is still there and I don't have to use blue pills to get it up.
The security of knowing I could not father an unwanted child, taking the worry away from my partner well worth the slight discomfort for a few days.
My hubby had a vasectomy this past June, and our sex life is just as good or even better. (We have sex at least once a day usually twice or more) He says be hasn't noticed a difference...so the sensation and cum is the same really.
Please check out my stories. <3
Thank you guys for replying. I had the procedure done this weekend. It was more uncomfortable that i anticipated. Dr. says that I likely have enough sperm still in my system to keep me fully fertile through 30 - 40 ejaculations. How long did you wait before having sex again after?
I had to go back 3 weeks later with a sample so they could check for swimmers. All was clear. We had sex before that but she was on BC so it didnt matter really.
I think it would be great for a relationship if you were sure that both of you didn't want kids. If that's the case, then I'd feel more free and relaxed during sex if I knew pregnancy wasn't going to happen.
