Men: Scary News If You Had a Vasectomy

[BCinIN]

I seriously doubt there's anything to worry about. 500,000 men per year in America get vasectomies. If it increased the total risk to anything about a negligible amount, the disease would be a lot less than rare now.

I think this is another case of a "researcher" wanting some grant money.

Well, not much I can do about that now, but it is what it is.

In the year of my 40th year, I had...in this order:

1. My first child...yes at 40...YIKES!!! And after all of those times in my younger years when the doctor said I had a low sperm count.
2. My first threesome...yes, I lived a very sheltered life...but my eyes are wide open now! LOL
3. Got snipped, the day before my birthday...happy birthday to me! LOL

Reason for snipping was...well, I was having a hard time gripping with reality that I would be putting a daughter through college when I was about ready to retire.

Add to that, my wife had a rough pregnancy and she was done...and did not want to have more health issues with having another child.

My doctor doesn't believe me, and I know it's unbelievable... but I know I was responsible for a baby 'after' my vasectomy. The baby miscarried, and I KNOW what my doctor thinks happened...

Being cryptic. My new doctor tells me recanalisation is possible, but very very unlikely and improbably. Not impossible though. I believe I beat the incredible odds and should have bought a lottery ticked that day rather than have sex.

to the guy above, get you swimmers checked again to make sure and then i'd say are you sure about who caused what?

as far as getting worked up over a study of 100 men, i don't think so!

I had mine done 34 years ago. I'm 66 and feel terrific, BP 116/65, total cholestrol 185, HDL 65....what was this topic again?

Dave says this would just makes him a "crazy fucker"... He's so weird!

[ktimephoenix]

anyone taking sharp tools and burning instruments to my genitles would probably cause brain damage to me!!!

good idea tho, AFTER mrs P and I have a couple of mini us's.

[Chris&Amelia]

So far I've had no complications from mine...

[VAswingcurious]

I had my husband get a vasectomy after our last child and the sex with him is unbelievable now - That is all he wants to do... Wish I would have done it sooner! LOL!

" I did not have sex with that woman"
wa u hum what was the question?

[quietlykinky]

It's an awefully small test group with whacky percentages and a whole lot of mights, maybes and coulds. I'm not terribly concerned about this.
Had my vasectomy three years ago. One of the best decisions we ever made.

[prometheius]

I had my vasectomy 27 years, 357 days ago. I've had no complications or problems and still feel sharp as I ever have been. Besides the posotive of not having to worry about causing a pregnancy any longer, another benefit of having the proceedure is that it decreases the chances of having prostate issues, cancer in particular.

Somewhat scary news, but sunshine, second hand smoke (which is way to prevalent at swing clubs), grilled meat, artificial sweetener, sex with multiple partners, driving, all probably have a great risk (in my non-scientific findings..lol). My mom-in-law worries about everything to the n-degree, drives us nuts..me I deal with what I can control and try not to sweat the rest!
