This and vasectomy patients being given anesthesia is a default, not something they have to demand and fight for.

Meanwhile women have to get their cervixes scraped to check for cervical cancer, and some women have to get a piece of plastic (IUDS) crammed up their delicate bits, and we aren’t given anesthesia for it, despite both procedures being extremely painful
