You could spend 600 bucks and get a vasectomy that will hurt way less and get the same result, they even gave me ice packs to keep the swelling down for that money.
After seeing the $600 number was from Canada, I looked it up for USA and $600 is the floor for out of pocket. It goes up to $3,000 with the median being $1500
I paid 700$ at planned parenthood. There was an option for discounts based on income level, but 700$ was acceptable for me.
Was it better than having more children; infinitely.
It’s it worse than being punched in the balls; infinitely.
Worst bit is the initial local anesthesia. “Needles, balls, ow” is the best description.
I was cold sweating, and controlled breathing through it.
My buddy who went that day too, passed out and bled a lot.
I could have gotten it done at a regular hospital but that would be elective surgery at their choice of times and also would not have been a quick recovery. I booked the time that worked for me.
The surgery I got was a small pin sized hole in the scrotum then the vas are pulled out, disconnected, and capped so they won’t reconnect. I went to work that night with ice packs and didn’t miss any work. Fortunately I was on desk duties for that month so I recovered quite well within a week and took my time getting back to full lifting after 3 weeks.
I got literally that procedure at a date and time of my choice at a hospital in Canada, for free. I literally walked home from the hospital, and was back to normal within a week.
Guys, I’ve been punching myself in the balls everyday for hours at a time and now my sperm can’t swim!

I got my done free! And live in fucking Oklahoma!
$600 bucks! Wow, every time I hear more about the American medical system I’m shocked.
I suppose it’s still cheaper than having an accidental kid.

That was in Canada at a private clinic.

Just curious was the procedure like the one in that link or was there cauterization done?
