I just did a vasectomy, it went great, I was fully knocked out for the surgery, no pain at all.
I just wish there were more active communities about this, I read that in the US alone there are about 500,000 vasectomies a year!
And I wish there were more detailed stories about PVPD (Post Vasectomy Pain Disorder) since most of what I found were medical research and it does seem well researched with a current statistical estimate of 1-2% of cases, I would like to know how many were long lasting, how bad, were there signs and also just personal stories.
Anyway, smell ya later!
Can’t, had a vasectomy
Adoption! We will adobt users from other communities!
why does there need to be a community to discuss it? is this a common thing men want to talk about?
“hi ive had a vasectomy”
“cool, me too”
….
Maybe to discuss the benefits, pitfalls, experience?
And men looking to get one might want advice. That’s the main things that come to mind.
I dunno, but it’s not a terrible idea. Probably just a community that will go mostly unused.
One common issue is finding a doctor who will do them. Many doctors won’t do the surgery if you’re under an arbitrary age, don’t have children, are unmarried, etc. So having a network to find/suggest those could be helpful
You can say that about anything…
Sharing information, having a community to ask questions, share information and help each other decide if it’s for them and help them with the process.
