Vasectomy

Is a surgical procedure to cut or seal the tubes that carry a man's sperm to permanently prevent pregnancy.

  • It is a safe contraceptive option and almost 100% effective in preventing pregnancy.
  • It usually lasts between 10 and 30 minutes.
  • Before having a vasectomy you must be sure that you do not want to have a child in the future.
  • It is considered a permanent control method, but can be reversed if performed by expert surgeons (urologists).
  • Before having unprotected sex, you should wait several months, and ejaculate 15-20 times or more to remove all the sperm from the semen.
