Understanding the Procedure
A safe, effective, and permanent form of contraception. Performed in under 15 minutes.
A vasectomy is a minor surgical procedure that prevents sperm from being released during ejaculation. It works by cutting or blocking the vas deferens — the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles. It does not affect testosterone levels, sexual drive, or the ability to achieve an erection or orgasm. Ejaculation continues normally. Sperm simply cannot be released.
