Vasectomy has been given a "pass" in the general public and when people answer questions about vasectomy on Yahoo! Answers, the posts always look the same. They all say that vasectomy has no side effects, can't affect sexual function and is completely safe. When someone point out the incidence of chronic testicular pain and the sexual side effects that men complain about anonymously in internet forums, they get "thumbs down" ratings. This is very strange.We can always find list references from the Urological literature to back up these points, yet, few seem to accept the information.
I don't understand the defense of an elective surgical procedure by people who have not had it done. It is like vasectomy has an "urban myth" attached to it of "complete and total safety". Perhaps it is because of the advertising of vasectomy as completely safe and the lack of public forum to discuss the outcome. Fifty percent of men keep their vasectomy a secret due to fears of being seen as less masculine or defective in some way after the procedure. Perhaps the men that have side effects keep their symptoms to themselves out of a similar fear or embarrassment. It is not like vasectomy is an acceptable "water cooler" topic.
Interestingly, if you get men who have had it done to talk about it, you hear a wide group of side effects and the hell of post-vasectomy pain syndrome.
