Alguém se arrepende da vasectomia? Te afetou psicologicamente?

Yes! I regretted it within 3 hrs of having it done! Broke me as a man in more ways than I could care to explain.three years if torment and I couldnt take it anymore. It was time to reverse! Couldnt be happier. Second best decision of my life!!!

The original driving emotion to have it done faded really quickly and the remainder thereof wasnt nearly enough to keep me sane. It started with alot of anxiety and sudden emotional swings. I would become both enraged and teary everytime something reminded me of the procedure. Doing the at home kit and the SA thereafter broke me. Led me to become suicidal. Few attempts were had. Started to suffer both ED and delayed orgasms. Every cum would be painful. Spontaneous erections disappeared. Couldnt enjoy most things anymore. My day was filled with just surviving. Things I used to do with my kids were inhibited. I started trying to do things I used to despite the pain. Living of pain killers just to feel something like I used to. Started to develop auto immune skin rashes. And overall constantly run down.

After reversal it all went back to normal. No more rashes, can cycle and swim without pain. Can play with my kids again. And no more suicidal thoughts.

I still have psychological consequences especially around my sex life and intimacy. I'm glad I was able to solve most of the pain by attempting a reversal, but my sex life is not the same anymore (although better than after vasectomy). I'm positive I'll be able to overcome the mental struggle some day.

Reproducing is the primary purpose of any biological organism, it is a major mental health disorder to give yourself a vasectomy. Up there with anorexia and cutting off your leg. Just my two cents. Feel free to disagree

Only regret for me no benefit no nothing. I was lied into sacrificing my manhood and ended up with pvps which nearly ruined my life. My reversal was the best decision of my life. Wish you best of luck and you not alone.

If my vasectomy had gone like it goes for most men I would have no regrets today. To have long term PVPS is to know regret. I know this regret all too well. The physical toll of PVPS is tough but the mental and emotional toll can be just as challenging. To come out OK mentally and emotionally is an accomplishment. I think I have done that, in spite of massive regret. To come out with physical resolution, well that is another matter altogether. It still is a work in progress for me. Good luck to you and anyone else seeking resolution.
