Don’t be. You’ll be sore for a few weeks, but the operation is less than an hour in total and doesn’t hurt a lot. Once you’re healed, its amazing to not have to worry about “accidents”…
Comment on The vasectomy was a good idea.

Really glad it made your life better and it def seems very safe by medical and popular standards.
I’m a scaredy cat, myself:
A tiny little fraction of guys experience chronic pain, then a fraction of those still experience pain after reversal.
Same as LASIK (small percentage experience dry eyes for the rest of their lives): I couldn’t live with myself if it went south and I didn’t NEED it in the first place.
But great for many use cases!

Worst part for me was my kids jumping on me while I was still healing. Otherwise truly no big deal
