    I intend to get the procedure done one day, glad to know I have a diamond shaped hole in my balls to look forward to. Also with those short shower times might as well make sure my hair is cut short the day before the operation so it doesn't take long to wash it.

      This is my second time around, pro tip is to just not shower for the first three days, have a decent one on morning 4 and change the bandage afterwards. It's just too much hassle otherwise.

        I'm gonna be bathing with wet wipes like some dude in the post-apocalypse because I told a doctor to turn my balls off.

    I remembered this single injection, fully reversible male birth control method, and it's still stuck in clinical trials 4 decades after initial publication.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversible_inhibition_of_sperm_under_guidance

    In 2000, an international survey found that 83% of men had expressed a willingness to use male birth control, thus hinting at a vast potential global market for RISUG. Nevertheless, pharmaceutical companies have expressed little interest in RISUG.

    No shit how do you profit off of a compound cheaper than the syringe it comes in

      You just charge whatever the fuck you want? I get why this should be a problem, but in practice this seems like something you could just slap a large price tag on and see who bites. Fine tune from there.

        it's also a one time thing, so it cant be relied upon. female birth control pills on the other hand...

          Yeah, I thought about that after. Kinda curious if it is more driven by that or liability.

      As India's population grew throughout the 1970s, Guha modified his heart pump design to create a water pump that could work off of differences in ionic charges between salt water and fresh water in water treatment facilities. This filtration system did not require electricity and could potentially help large groups of people have access to clean water. India however decided that the population problem would be better served by developing more effective contraception. So Guha again modified his design to work safely inside the body, specifically inside the male genitalia. The non-toxic polymer of RISUG also uses differences in the charges of the semen to rupture the sperm as it flows through the vas deferens.[2]

      Wild. I feel like a energy free water treatment plant would be way more important than male contraceptives (not that male contraceptives are bad, just that a fire and forget water treatment plant would save millions of lives).

    when I got mine I had to do the week and submit a "sample". Handing over a specimen jar of hot cum to someone at a reception desk is defenitely high on my list of weird experiences.

      Haha, I remember that from my first. We have to call ahead to get courier times. Not only am I handing over a hot load, I'm also calling up to basically say "hey, I'm about to Jack it, that cool with you?"

          Yeah, this was my second. I was one of those miniscule chance people who had to go back for another because it healed up.

          Edit: the first sign it healed was my wife getting pregnant. The second was s recount of my sperm.

        Because it was an extremely severe operation with screws and rods put in everywhere. This should give you an idea. I did try to do it once earlier, but it was near impossible to cum and when I did it hurt like hell. So I stuck to the medical advice after that. Probably something to do with the nervous system

      Nah, do it. I mean, I did because I can't use condoms and birth control really messes with my partner.

      It's a quick and simple solution for birth control and it isn't as bad as it all seems.

      If you want to, I day get it still. As someone said below, short term discomfort for long term cumming.

    real v-snipped hours. 100% worth it.

    also, I was blown away by how shit sex ed is in the u.s., as evidenced by the ignorance of grown ass men about how a vasectomy works.

    no, they don't remove your balls. no, it's not like being neutered. yes, I still produce testosterone. no, I won't need pills to get wood. yes, you still shoot a load. no, the loads aren't noticably smaller.

    sex ed is so much worse in the u.s. than it was when I was a kid.

    also, dropping off a hot load in a cup for a medical receptionist is totally fuckin' weird and made me feel like a deviant, but not in the cool way.

      Jesus. Really? I live in a country where we're still down with having government funded chaplains in public schools bit our sex ed is at least a bit better than that.
