My recovery was honestly pretty bad. I was bed-ridden for about 2 weeks, then 8-ish months of aching pain all day every day. Not actually sure when it finally cleared up, I just realized I hadn’t felt the pain in a while. My first nut was about a month after the procedure, and that was also a very unpleasant experience.

My case is abnormal, but even more rare is the guys that continue to be in pain for the rest of their lives. Didn’t find out about that until I started digging deeper because of my persistent pain.

That said, I still 100% recommend getting it done.

Dang that sucks your urologist / surgeon didn’t let you know about this. Mine was very clear that though it is rare (was quoted 1% which seems kind high to me) he doesn’t recommend going through with the procedure if you have testicular pain in your day to day as it could be a risk factor for having permanent pain afterwards

EVEN AFTER REVERSING THE PROCEDURE

Look, it’s SUPER rare. We still drive cars even though, using my state of California as an example, eight of us die on the roads every day.

But…

I could never forgive myself if my groin hurt thirty years from now because of a singular & highly-optional decision I made today.

Same with LASIK - some have dry eyes forever afterwards. Nooooooo

I knew a guy who didn’t respond to the local anesthesia, and could feel the whole thing, and his doctor didn’t believe him.

Even he didn’t regret it.

Oh, yeah, my local wore off halfway through. When they applied more, it felt like they lit my nuts on fire.

Mine was rough too, about 6 months before I was normal.

Not a single fucking regret

I’m so sorry, that’s horrid! I have multiple friends who came home with no pain, didn’t do cum for a few weeks, and basically didn’t even notice anything.

That’s so fucking horrible, I wish you had a much better experience. At least you can dump in the gut eternally with no worries, though.
