Expert answer:
A vasectomy has few side effects(swelling and pain in the testicles or epididymis), which usually occurs within the first year after surgery, but usually disappears within a week when treated with warm compress. Occasionally, it can be treated with antibiotics.
It is likely that after vasectomy, the patient feels some pain for a few days. He should be rested for at least one day and at most within a week he will be fully recovered.
Not there is scientific evidence to prove that vasectomy interferes:
- sexual potency or performance;
- in libido;
- weight gain;
- sperm characteristics (volume, smell, appearance);
- on the aspect of the penis or testicles.
The urologist can advise you on vasectomy and its side effects.
