Vasectomy

Vasectomy

The surgery blocks a guy’s sperm duct and prevents sperm from entering the ejaculate. The guy can still ejaculate during sex, but the fluid doesn’t contain any sperm. You could never tell from the amount of ejaculate that a guy has had a vasectomy. A vasectomy is considered permanent, because the surgery is difficult and costly to reverse. The pregnancy rate following vasectomy is 0-2.2%.

Benefits

It’s the most effective method of contraception controlled by a guy. It’s easy, permanent, and relieves women of contraceptive burdens.

Disadvantages

There might be some swelling after the surgery, but the most common problem is that a man will come to regret his decision…and reversal doesn’t always work.

Where to find it

There might be some swelling after the surgery, but the most common problem is that a man will come to regret his decision…and reversal doesn’t always work.

Troubleshooting

A man can still have sperm in his ejaculate up to 3 months after the surgery, so he should use another method of contraception until his check-up. A vasectomy also does not protect against STIs, so a man may still want to use a condom for protection.
