What is Vasectomy for Men?

Surgical procedures such as vasectomy or male sterilisation involve cutting or blocking the vas deferens, the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the urethra. By undergoing a vasectomy, a man will be sterile and incapable of impregnating a woman because the sperm cannot reach the semen he ejaculates during sexual interaction.


A vasectomy is a highly effective and permanent form of birth control with a success rate of over 99 percent. Due to the fact that vasectomy surgery acts as a permanent contraceptive and is irreversible, men should only consider it a permanent decision. It is a relatively simple surgical procedure that has minimal risks or complications.

Types of Vasectomy

Male vasectomy procedures fall into two categories:


1. No-Scalpel Vasectomy operation: An operation with a no-scalpel vasectomy is less invasive than one requiring an incision. Instead of cutting the scrotum, the surgeon uses a special instrument to make a small puncture. As a result of this puncture, the doctor is able to access the vas deferens, which is then cut and sealed in the same way as in the traditional vas deferens. Due to its less invasive nature, the no-scalpel procedure causes less pain, bleeding, and scarring.


2. Traditional Vasectomy Operation: The most common vasectomy for men is the traditional vasectomy. During this procedure, the doctor makes one or two tiny incisions in the scrotum to access the vas deferens. A small section of the vas deferens is then removed, tied, clipped, or cauterised to prevent sperm from passing through. Surgical glue or stitches are used to close the incisions.

About Vasectomy Reversal

Despite the fact that vasectomy is considered a permanent form of contraception, a vasectomy reversal surgery is sometimes possible to reverse it. During a vasectomy reversal, the ends of the vas deferens are reconnected, allowing sperm to again mix with semen and leave the body during ejaculation.


The success rate of vasectomy reversal varies according to several factors, including how long since the vasectomy has been performed, the technique used during the original procedure, and the individual's age and health.

Male Vasectomy Surgery

Male vasectomy surgery typically takes about 20-30 minutes and is performed in a urologist's office or clinic. The steps of male vasectomy surgery are:

  • After numbing the area near the scrotum with anaesthetic, the urologist cleans and sterilises it.

  • To access the vas deferens, the tube that transports sperm from the testicles to the urethra, the doctor will make one or two small incisions in the scrotum.

  • During surgery, the doctor will cut the vas deferens and remove a small section, tying, sealing, or cauterising the ends to prevent the passage of sperm.

  • Stitches, skin glue, or surgical tape will be used to close the incisions.

  • A doctor and medical staff will examine the patient for 2-3 hours after the procedure.

Benefits of Treatment

The male vasectomy or male sterilisation is considered to be the most effective method to prevent pregnancy. Here are some of the benefits:

  • From the third day after vasectomy, most men can resume their normal activities. Vasectomy involves no to very low risks and complications.

  • Having a vasectomy does not affect a man's sexual function or ability to enjoy sex. A man can still have erections, ejaculate, and experience orgasms after a vasectomy.

  • Vasectomy is linked to a reduced risk of prostate cancer and may also reduce the risk of testicular cancer, according to medical research.

  • Contrary to condoms and birth control pills, vasectomy is a one-time procedure and a permanent method of contraception.

  • Men can take control of their family planning by opting for vasectomies.
