The directions I saw recently were no arousal for two weeks, then ejaculate 20 times over 2 months, then send in the sample. If the sample doesn’t come back clear, then repeat after 2 more months. Insurance does not cover the testing kit.

I don’t want to be a nut buster but aren’t you supposed to beat the meat bunch to clear the remains after till it’s clean?

I’ve never head that, but sounds like a nice consolation.

Yes, you’re supposed to ejaculate a few times before you bring in a sample to have it tested. But you’re supposed to wait a week or two before any sexual action after the actual surgery.

IIRC was prescribed like 30 ejaculations over the course of two months. I could be wrong about the exact number but I remember thinking I had to actually put an effort and some consistency in it if I was going to hit the target.

Jeeez. My friends who have gotten vasectomies were told a couple is fine, and they were shooting blanks after maybe 7-10 cums hahaha

My doctor said 20 over 3 months. I’m about 1.5 months in, way beyond 20. Wondering if I can get my test early haha

A week or two? Here in Germany it was like “Whenever you feel good enough again” which he said would be in about 1-2 days. And for me it was a day after the vasectomy.
But I had a great Doctor who said I can bring my phone or Console to play on while he worked his magic. Ended up watching with a mirror though…
