- Vasectomy
Vasectomy is the most effective method of contraception for men — a short, minimally invasive procedure involving division of the vas deferens. It is a considered decision taken by a growing number of men who wish to take responsibility for family planning.
A decision about vasectomy should always follow a thorough urological consultation covering the indications, the course of the procedure, and its legal and family implications. The procedure should be regarded as permanent.
Key facts about vasectomy
- the procedure takes fifteen to forty-five minutes and is performed under local anaesthesia
- it does not affect libido, erection or sexual sensation
- it does not alter male hormone balance
- contraceptive effectiveness exceeds 99%
- return to everyday activity usually occurs within a few days
