Jeff’s experience: A trip to Sunkist land

Hi all. Like many of the other contributors to this page, I thought I’d share my experience so that any of you who are considering vasectomy might breathe a bit easier.

Dorino’s experience: South African NSV experience

Due to the fact that my wife is allergic to the pill, and condoms have been the main contraception, my wife and myself decided on a vasectomy. The big day was at 14:00 on the 26 February 2001.

John’s experience: Never bring your wife…

I began by talking to, of all people, my wife’s ob-gyn. On one of her routine pregnancy check-ups, I asked what … Continue reading
