If you normally take any other medication daily you may take them as needed.

You may shave the scrotum on the day of surgery if possible.

Take a shower with antibacterial soap a few hours or the night before surgery with gentle cleaning of scrotal area.

Dos and Don’ts


For your personal safety and comfort, we ask that you follow these guidelines...


1. DO NOT eat or drink anything, not even water, for six hours before your surgery even though surgery will be under local anesthesia.
2. DO NOT wear jewelry or bring valuables with you. We have no place for safe-keeping of these items.
3. DO NOT discontinue any medications unless so directed.
4. DO notify your surgeon if you are a diabetic.
5. DO notify if you experience any health changes between your last communication and the day of surgery -such as a cold, fever, the flu or other symptoms.
6. DO wear casual, comfortable, loose fitting clothing.
7. DO feel free to bring a favorite video movie (VCR) for accompanying adults/children, CD player or palm devices for patients.
8. DO arrange for someone responsible to drive you home and stay with you upon discharge. You may feel a little weak or sleepy; this is normal.
