In this episode of the podcast, Dr. Joe Pazona, a board-certified urologist who has performed over 4,000 vasectomies, delves into the top four reasons men experience regret after the procedure and, more importantly, how you can prevent them.
Dr. Pazona addresses the most common fears and myths surrounding vasectomies with both humor and expert medical advice. Discover why factors like your age and readiness at the time of the procedure are so critical. The episode also explores the significant impact that new relationships can have on the decision, with studies showing that 94% of men who regret their vasectomy entered a new relationship after the procedure.
