After having a “scare” in December with my wife being late, it hit me! With me turning 37 soon, I did not want another newborn in my life. Well, thankfully my worrying was all for nothing since after 3 pregnancy tests turned up negative. It was at that point that I need to act on … Continue reading

Three weeks ago, my husband gave me the best gift in the world. His side of the story is Greenfeather’s story on this site. He gave me the gift of freedom. Freedom from the daily hassle of birth control pills. Also freedom from the side effects of taking birth control pills for years. We had … Continue reading

I’ve spent enough time on this site reading others stories, I thought I’d contribute myself. I had my vasectomy done almost exactly a week ago and have no regrets. I am 33 and my wife and I have 2 children. We decided that is enough. The only birth control we’ve ever used is condoms and … Continue reading
Good afternoon gentlemen, I had my procedure at 9:00 am today (1/23/03); since I have received so much help and advice from this site, I thought I’d give back a little by sharing my own experience in the hopes it may benefit someone down the line. My whole decision to have a vasectomy came about … Continue reading
As we’ll both be forty in about 2 weeks, and have two kids aged 3 and 1, we both were sure we didn’t want any more kids. We always just wanted two, and we’ve got a boy and a girl. My wife was perfectly happy taking the pill, as it keeps her periods down to … Continue reading
Years ago, I swam with a group of friends at a public pool. The facilities were (and probably still are) very nice. Besides the pool, we had a whirlpool, and both men’s and women’s steam rooms. Because we frequented this pool so often, we were friends with all the staff and especially the lifeguards. One … Continue reading
I suppose I am here to learn and share my experiences. I had a vasectomy done in January 1995. I was 35 at the time. We had one ten-year-old child who was/is extremely hyperactive and troublesome to us. We tried for several years for another baby, but after two painful and emotionally draining miscarriages, we … Continue reading
I had my consult in early December, and scheduled my procedure for January 8th. The doctor that I used gave me the option of having the procedure done upstairs in his office with PO Valium as a mild sedative or I could have it done downstairs with IV conscious sedation. (I.E. Versed, and Morphine). I … Continue reading
I had a vasectomy two days ago. It did not go well, and I still am not entirely sure what to make of what happened. The doctor was an older urologist who has done thousands of them. He was a very kind man, who seemed intelligent and had a good sense of humor. During the … Continue reading
I am writing this hoping it will put some nerves at ease. I had my consultation visit on November 18, 2002, with a well-known urologist who specializes in the no-scalpel procedure. He explained the procedure in detail using some diagrams and a model. After several brief questions and an examination of the equipment, I was … Continue reading

Today is the one month and a day anniversary of my vasectomy. I had my second post-vasectomy sample checked yesterday (just coincidence on the timing) and it was sperm free, as was my first one a little over 2 weeks ago! I decided to go ahead and get the vasectomy around early August 2002. I … Continue reading
Since I gained so much information from the site, I’d like to contribute my story. It’s pretty detailed and a little long, but I appreciated details in the other guys’ stories, so I included them. I’m 27 and child-free. The Decision I’ve known for years that I don’t want kids. By my mid-twenties, the idea … Continue reading
