southmartin Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 OK, am considering getting my knackers immobilised... anyone here had it done? Apparently there are two different methods: One involving a scalpel, another that is scalpel-free... for somewhat obvious reasons i'm leaning toward the latter method! Thinking of going private - but depends on costs too I guess... All comments welcome! (PS - i'm not the swinger from the anonymous thread about it either!)

Giraffe Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 It's a doddle, just a few embarrassing moments for me. One being the nurses staring intently at my genitalia. Also afterwards I was parked up in a wheelchair for a while then given the all clear to leave. By the time I stood up and put my pants on I had started to bleed. a real gusher; I wanted out of the hospital so didn't mention it and I walked. By the time we got to the car park the blood stain on my pants was the size of a dinner plate but it stopped itself eventually. Of course the better half found this hysterically funny - 'now you know how we feel.. blah blah' Re; Pain. very uncomfortable when the needle goes in but it just lasts a few seconds.

Executive Sadman Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Mates dad had it done. He didnt seem to mind everyone knowing either. He had 4 kids already tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
middleway Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Yep had it done last year went private for the 'no scalpel' option. Pretty easy, called up and was in 3 days later i was in and out in less than half an hour (the actual procedure took no more then 10 minutes) On inspection it looked like they only made one tiny hole & there is a smell of burning as they presumably seal all the pipework up I am pretty squeamish so i just chatted to the nurse and the surgeon (both ladies) and tried not to think about it. Was nowhere near as painful afterwards as i was expecting, no swelling or bruising, nothing (can't vouch for the traditional scalpel operation my dad said his swelled up like satsumas ) I just had a bit of a dull ache from time to time for a week or two and that was it As long as you park your dignity at the door & remember you're not likely to see them again anyway.

swissy_fit Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Don't want to in case I win the Euromillions, in which case I might have a couple more kids. Hmm, at those odds maybe I should just go ahead and get it done! If they could do a reversible one, I reckon many men would go for it, even young men.

southmartin Posted August 31, 2012 Author Share Posted August 31, 2012 I think if I were a true hardcode HPCer I'd opt for the 2 bricks 'cheap' option... but you know something will go wrong and i'll end up in the daily mail with 1000 comments saying "well what did you expect?" So far the non-scalpel reply is encouraging the most PS have 2 already (kids that is) ... haven't ruled out donating to my own personal cryogenic test tube, just in case - like someone else said - i hit the euromillions and feel crazy enough to do it all again (though would emply an army of nannies of course) How much did you pay for the non-scalpel method (please don't mention anymore about the smell of burning ok??)

thecrashingisles Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Didn't seem to be any major after effects here.

justthisbloke Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I was considering it a few years back but then someone in the office had it done and had a terrible time afterwards; lots of pain and swelling - I think he had to go back under the knife. After that, I've gone off the idea somewhat. Which is a pity as I'm very, very keen on not adding to the collection of offspring. I'm on the home straight now and the idea of a new addition to the family fills me with cold horror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadget Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Not sure if you have had any kids.. i have 3 and I am veeeery keen to leave it at that, Yeah i get that (and no i definitely don't have kids) But there are plenty of other less painful and permanent forms of birth control. You just don't know what's down the road. What if your wife leaves you and you find yourself shacked up with a super-hot 30 year old keen on kiddies... What if angelina jolie (back when she was hot) grabs you in a bar in desperate need for impregnation. But then spots your scar and kicks you out of bed?

The odds of either of these things happening for most HPC posters are similar to the odds of me winning the Euromillions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albimac Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Has mine done by Marie stopes, which felt like a proper conveyor belt. Most painful part was the chap cleaning my testicles before he started the procedure. Felt like I had been flicked. Might be worth having words with him/her at beginning. Most disappointing moment was realising he would have to repeat the procedure on the other side as well. Allowed myself two days bedrest & took things easy for a good week or so. No way I could have carried on as normal before then. Supportive pants were essential. Went for a short walk in boxers & came back cupping myself. For a couple of months afterwards, I would randomly suffer an ache that resembled the pain felt when recovering from a kick to the nuts. Saying that, I have no regrets having it done.

albimac Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 And another thing. I enquired about the scalpel free method. My main thrust was how do they get in there without cutting me open. I'm sorry to inform you but there's no Star Trek like sensor they can run up & down the outside of your trousers. Whatever name they give it, the inside of your sack will see daylight in order to complete the procedure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEATH Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I know a guy who shacked up with a woman who had a kid already, she convinced him to get it done, so he did. A year later she left him for a guy 20 years older. Forgot to add, she had a kid with the new guy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
