Do you think vasectomies are free?
Comment on A gel injected into the scrotum could be the next male contraceptive

In countries with proper national health, yes. Source: live in EU and got mine for the cost of the uber to get home.

I think they could be.

Freezing only lasts 10 years. I know because I have it.

What are you going to do at year 9 and 12 months 29 days?
tsonfeir@lemm.ee 10 months ago
I eat lots of stuff after the expiration date and I’m just fine. However, that’s probably not the best analogy to use when we’re talking about spermcicles.

So they can extend it but the quality will be reduced and likely I won’t be able to have kids. It was already pretty shot due to surgical trauma. Likely I just won’t be able to sire children.
Probably best for the world in that case

Under proper storage, sperm will last indefinitely. At least based on what sperm banks say

Not according to the hospital where mine is stored.
