A couple days of discomfort and he was fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-dh-had-a-vasectomy#post-2469371 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 17:45:11 +0000 littlejoy 2469371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've hear that if the pain does happen (which is due to a specific issue), the solution is a reversal. Obviously that's counterintuitive, but it's not like it would be forever (without a way to fix it). </p> <p>I'm pretty sure my husband will be skipping to the doc for a V as soon as our 2nd is born. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-dh-had-a-vasectomy#post-2469326 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 15:36:17 +0000 sometimesshesings 2469326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks, guys! DH is definitely willing to deal with pain and other side effects while his body is healing or adjusting, but I wouldn't want him to have anything chronic as a result. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-dh-had-a-vasectomy#post-2469293 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 14:55:28 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2469293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sarac: yes! Between 9 months pregnant plus a year breastfeeding with each kid, he can deal with some body stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-dh-had-a-vasectomy#post-2469281 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 14:14:56 +0000 kodybear 2469281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope, he said it was sore a couple days after but that was it. its almost been a year. he had a no scalpel vasectomy so no stitches or anything </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-dh-had-a-vasectomy#post-2469279 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 14:09:44 +0000 sarac 2469279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, though we have a friend who had a hard time with his. Frankly, I've got so many lasting changes after having two kids that I would expect my husband to suck it up. And he was happy to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-dh-had-a-vasectomy#post-2469057 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 00:50:58 +0000 dcw6411 2469057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No negative side effects for my husband. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-dh-had-a-vasectomy#post-2469051 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 00:22:54 +0000 sometimesshesings 2469051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband is thinking about getting a vasectomy now that we're done having kids, but various studies have shown that anywhere from 1-18% of men can suffer from chronic pain and other issues as a result of the procedure. </p> <p>Anyone have experience with negative side effects from a vasectomy? </p>
