Answers:
About 15% of men have chronic testicular or scrotal pain after vasectomy according to post-vasectomy surveys in the medical literature.. The incidence varies but is too high to recommend the procedure with current techniques.. It seems that about 90% of men do fine, however.. You just don't want to be in that other group..

Vasectomy complications in this ten to fifteen percent (some studies cite lower incidence of 2-6%) can interfere with sexual function or sexual enjoyment.. Because this outcome can have a significant impact and affect quality of life, it should be featured on vasectomy consent forms.. You can see from this study that pain can not only occur, but can be chronic and between 1 in 30 and 1 in 60 men regret vasectomy due to chronic pain.. Whether the incidence is one in a thousand or six percent does not matter if you are the affected patient.. If a patient is not made aware of this risk pre-operatively and then develops symptoms, a severe, life altering outcome has occurred with no warning.. This is simply wrong, and the incidence of the problem does not excuse this omission.. The very nature of the affect of chronic pain on the patient
