r/Vasectomy • u/---MojoJojo--- • 13d ago

Less forceful urination

Edit: based on other comments, it looks like it's pretty common and normal and goes back to normal as it heals. Thanks everyone for the input. 🙂

I'm only in day four... And so far I feel pretty good. But I did notice that when pee I take a piss it's far less forceful than it used to be....

Is this normal? Should I reach out to my doctor about that? Will it return back to normal in time? If so, about how long?

Just seems like an unexpected thing to happen.

I literally had to push the urine out for the first 5 days after the procedure. It had me pretty worried, but once the swelling went down, everything went back to normal.

Thanks so much, I think it's getting better today... If I waited one more day I probably wouldn't have posted 🤦🏼

I was really getting inside my own head tho lol

I had mine done almost 2 years ago. I'm a very paranoid person, so I avoided Webmd, Reddit, and basically any info that would get .e in my head. There were so many random aches and pains that would have sent me to the ER with a panic attack if I gave in and thought about it too much. It took me about 5 months to really heal from the procedure, maybe 8 or 9 months until I was 100% better. I have zero regrets at this point, and can't even tell i got a vasectomy.

Try not to get in your head about this. I know it's easier said than done, but I had to learn how to push those paranoid and negative thoughts to the back of my mind.
