My vasectomy was 5 years ago; the healing went fine. A couple of years ago, I kept swelling and my balls would turn blue. Went to ER and they did an ultrasound. They said my clamps had almost come completely off. After ejaculation, my balls would shrivel up and feel like I was kicked in the balls by a horse. I also could feel the clamps. Now, I can’t feel my clamps and no pain. I'm back to pre-surgery amount of cum. We want another baby. Could it happen or do I need a reversal?

I'm 5 months post-no-scalpel vasectomy. In the last week, I’ve developed a testicle ache with occasional sharp, burning pain up the vas into the upper groin. It varies in intensity and responds well to heat or ibuprofen. I assumed congestion. The urologist I saw today never heard of that and suspects infection. He gave me Doxycycline even though the urine test was negative. I have no unusual swelling or redness or fever. Is this possible? Should I wait it out before taking antibiotics?

My clip came off 4 days after vasectomy. Should I be concerned? I'm worried about what affect the clip could have down there.

I had my vasectomy about two months ago. The first 3 weeks were painful but I was getting better in week 4. In week 5, I was almost normal and felt I could move furniture. Two days later, it was like week 1 all over again (a lot of pain and swelling). I went to the ER and the ultrasound showed everything was normal. My urologist said the same. My question is, is this normal? Right now I have issues sleeping because of the moderate swelling and pain.

It's been 6 days since my vasectomy and I still have pain and swelling in my groin area. It feels like a double hernia. It hurts to go from sitting to standing and when standing for long periods. My testicles also hurt when I go from sitting to standing. Everyone is calling me a baby due to my symptoms, but this doesn't feel normal. What do you think?

I had a wet dream 3 days after my vasectomy. I was feeling fine with little pain until I had a wet dream and now I'm really sore and not sure if it normal.

I had a semen analysis and the result was 1-2 motile sperm/ HPF and 10-20 non-motile sperm/ HPF. Am I still fertile? It has been 11 months since the procedure. Is this a failure? Should I have a second procedure done?

Had a traditional vasectomy 12yrs ago and got worried about recanalization. I've had two negative at-home sperm tests. Is it safe to say I'm still sterile?

I can open the hole a bit and it's sealed within the hole. Just wondering if I'll always have a new hole there or if it will seal up over time. Thank you!

Two days after my visit, one testicle is three times bigger than other. Is this normal?

I recently rubbed the scab off on accident; it has been 6 days since vasectomy surgery. There is no bleeding, gap or pain, just uncolored skin. Am I fine?

I had a no-scalpel vasectomy yesterday. The procedure was fine and my surgical site is closed. I’m mostly ok, except there’s a bruise (not painful to the touch) on the right side of my penis, far away from the surgical site. Everything I read and was advised by the doctor talks about bleeding or bruising around the site or in the testicles, so this one threw me off. It’s not painful, just wondering if it should be cause for a follow-up.

I just had sex with a man who had a vasectomy 15 years ago. Could he still get me pregnant?

My husband had a vasectomy 8 yrs ago after out 3rd child. Had the follow-up sperm check and got the all-clear. I recently found out I'm 2 weeks pregnant. I haven't been with anyone else. After finding out, he saw his Dr. and he said his sperm count was very low but still considered sterile. How does this happen?

I had my vasectomy about 7 days ago. Since day 1, I have big swelling (the left testicle is 2x bigger than the right). I applied ice for 3 days but the testicles remain at the same size and my scrotum is a bit red. Additionally, I have moderate pain in the upper part of both testicles if I touch them (more pain in the left one). I asked my doctor at day 4 and he says that everything is as expected. But I'm concerned because I'm at the same stage since the surgery.

I'm 28 year's old, 5'7" height and 67 kgs weight. I want to sell some of my sperm. How do I go about doing that? Is there a process?

I still have slight swelling and pain that goes from under the testicle and feels like it extends to my bladder. It's been 1 month. Is this normal? I started my life as normal the next day after vasectomy, carrying one of my kids. And 7 days later I had to travel, taking four flights for three days. The pain comes slightly when I walk or my testicles are hanging.

I had a no-scalpel vasectomy 4 months ago. It seemed to have healed normally. I've ejaculated several times with no issue. However, this most recent time a pill-size mass has developed, which is painful. How do I prevent this while still being able to perform?

On day 6 after my procedure, I developed discomfort in my left testicle and groin area, which progressed to significant pain on days 7 and 8. On day 7, a call to my doctor resulted in a prescription of Cephalexin. I have no fever or other symptoms other than pain. My scrotum is bruised but it has improved. I’ve noticed no weeping out of the suture sites. After 36 hours of rest and 24 of antibiotics, pain hasn’t improved. Is this infection or hematoma, or surgical complication?

I had a vasectomy 5 months ago and have what my urologist calls a contusion. He is rubbing off the tenderness to my scrotum and balls as nothing. How do you get a contusion after vasectomy? What can be done about it and the tenderness it causes?
