Answers:
I know several men who've had vasectomies!. It's done at the doctor's office in many instances, under local anesthetic!. The guy is sore for two or three days, then recovery is very rapid!. IIRC, he still needs to use protection for a month or so afterward, to make sure there are no living 'soldiers' in his system!.

It's a far less invasive procedure than anything permanent which is available to women!.

Condom every time sounds fine--but I've got a daughter proving that a condom is not always enough, even when paired with another birth control method!. If your wife should not become pregnant for medical reasons, don't count on condoms!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

As the other respondent said, generally, a vasectomy requires a short recovery time, & is quite effective in preventing conception, such that a few ejaculations after the procedure, you will probably be sterile!.
The procedure has a "reversal" procedure for those who change their minds but don't count on it!.

There can be some confounding developments later; sometimes, the vas deferens reattach & you will be able to conceive again!. Additionally, some men (not sure about the percentage but it's probably less than 4% of those who've undergone the procedure) have a decrease in testosterone following vasectomy!. This may result from antibodies attacking sperm & the surrounding cells that produce it & testosterone!. I belong to a group wherein some men have reported decreased testosterone as a result of vasectomy: http://health!.groups!.yahoo!.com/group/hyp!.!.!.

Hope that helps you determine if it's worthwhile for you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
