No, they’re not always reversible. You can opt for one that isn’t, and even if you decide to go for it, it might simply not work.

You can also die from a knee replacement.

As it turns out, that’s not the typical outcome, so people still get knee replacements, despite the non-zero chance of death during the procedure.

  What? We’re not talking about death here, what kind of a reply is that? We’re talking about making a decision at a very young age that might have irreversible consequences, a decision many 20yos are simply ill equipped to make, in particular, when alternatives exist.

    So you interjected to state that there are risks associated with procedures.

    Nice work, champ.

Correct me if I’m wrong. But your testicles will still produce valid material don’t they? That could be extracted and used for artificial insemination if needed, I think.
