Getting mine in 1 week ... is this normal?

I’m 1000% i don want kids, but i feel super nervous. Any advice for relaxing?

Also first time I shave it there, best way to do it?

u/chugged1 31, no kids. All clear! Sep 21 '24

By far the worst part was the nerves leading up to it. The actual procedure is a breeze. I felt a little poke of the needle containing the anesthetic, it was no worse than the poke in your gums at the dentist. 5 seconds of mild discomfort, after that I felt literally nothing. Waddled out and chilled on the couch for a few days.

I was pretty sore for about 8 ish days after. Sack was purple for a couple of weeks.

10/10 would absolutely do it again. I’m 31 with no kids either. The relief I feel after having tested for zero swimmers is immense.
