If THAT nurse is involved I might consider it.

Not a problem if you rest for the amount of time Doc says, no matter how good you feel. If you don't, you're on your own.

V-day is on Friday. Wish me luck! I am still hoping to make that concert on Sunday. I'm also still hoping that nurse may show up...

Good luck, Doc.

No worries, you should be right as rain by Sunday. I went to a play that night - "Angels in America: Perestrokia," I believe - not recommended. (The play was great, but sitting for that length of time given the morning's activity was ill advised.) ;)

BTW: Mazel tov!

just went to the doctor last night for my second post visit. all clear. no more tadpoles swimming free.

my advice to you would be to wear the supporter, i stopped wearing it after a week and started exercising again and i had major pain, i starting wearing again for a few more weeks until the pain went away completely.

again, do not, do not stop early, in fact wear it longer than you need to. You don't want to go through what i did.

Wow, it does my heart good to hear about all you yuppie liberals having yourselves gelded! It won't make you any more intelligent, but at least it will help make you calmer and better behaved.

Thanks guys!

Wait isn't that a sin? How dare you Doc!

Make sure you stock up on frozen peas! :P

My workmate did this, the next day he came back to work as usual.

Hubby got his done 10 years ago. Said the worst part was having a pretty nurse holding the bits that weren't going through the procedure out of the way. :P

Its the interfering with the bag that causes the discomfort in the first place.

I have a few dumb questions:

As I understand it, your testes make the sperm, getting snipped leaves your testes intact and and functional in your scrotum, but ties or ties and snips the tubes leading from your testes and out to your penis.

1. I assume the testes don't continually produce sperm, or you'd explode, or do they and it's absorbed, or something else? If you have an orgasm, doesn't that give your testes the message to make more sperm?

2. When you orgasm, does anything come out?

3. Are you still getting the same amount of hormones?

4. What it you run out of glue in the house?

Had mine done a couple of years ago. Not much to it. I was after request able to watch the procedure in a mirror while they did it. A little tender the first few days but went away quickly.
All the colors of the rainbow were present the day after doing it. Should've submitted a pic for a challenge! :)

No

2. When you orgasm, does anything come out?
Yes

3. Are you still getting the same amount of hormones?
Yes At least I think so...

4. What it you run out of glue in the house?
Then you're in a pickle!

ETA: I'm sure DrAchoo will correct me. But AFAIK in layman's terms the tubes they snip only 'activates' the sperm. Sperm is still present like before.

Trollman got it right. The sperm is still produces but has no way to get to the action. They are reabsorbed. Sperm is constantly being turned over in the testes.

Only about 1% of semen is sperm. There's a great fact for your next cocktail party.

So when you orgasm, semen comes out, but it's missing that 1% of sperm?

Semen comes from someplace other than the testes? Someplace where the path hasn't been snipped?

I must've been busy passing notes, trying to get some action with that cute girl who sat in front of me.

Most of the liquid portion is formed in the prostate gland.
