Vasectomy is a simple and highly effective surgical procedure that is used as a permanent method of contraception for men.
During the procedure, the vas deferens, which are the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the semen, are cut or blocked. This prevents sperm from mixing with semen during ejaculation, resulting in the inability to fertilize an egg.
Vasectomy is one of the most effective methods of contraception available, with an effectiveness rate of over 99%. Once the procedure is complete and after a period of time necessary to remove any residual sperm, the chance of pregnancy is extremely low. It is important to follow medical instructions and perform follow-up tests to confirm the effectiveness of the procedure.

At the Urology Specialty Center, we understand that every patient is unique. For this reason, we offer a personalized approach to treatment, adapting our recommendations and care to the individual needs and circumstances of each person. From the first consultation to the post-operative follow-up, we are dedicated to providing an excellent service.
Prior to surgery, consultations will be held to assess the patient’s health status and discuss any questions or concerns. Specific instructions will be provided on how to prepare for the procedure, which may include recommendations on hygiene and possible dietary restrictions.
On the day of surgery, the patient will be received at our facility and will have a final check-up before the start of the procedure. Vasectomy is usually performed under local anesthesia and takes about 15 to 30 minutes. During the procedure, the vas deferens are cut and then sealed to prevent sperm from passing through. The incision is minimal and is closed with stitches or left to heal on its own.
After surgery, the patient may experience some mild discomfort that is managed with painkillers. Rest for 1-2 days and avoiding strenuous physical activity for about a week will be recommended. It is crucial to follow all medical instructions and attend follow-up consultations to ensure a proper recovery.
Vasectomy is generally considered a permanent method of birth control. However, there are reversal procedures that can restore fertility. These procedures are complex and do not always guarantee success, so it is important to consider vasectomy as a permanent decision.
Vasectomy is a safe procedure with few risks. Some side effects may include mild pain, swelling, and bruising in the treated area. More serious complications are rare but may include infections or sperm granulomas. It is important to follow the post-operative instructions to minimize any risks.
Most men recover completely within a week. It is recommended to avoid strenuous activities and sexual intercourse during this period. Most patients can return to work and normal activities within a few days, depending on the nature of their work.
Vasectomy does not affect libido, erection capacity, or sexual sensitivity. Men can continue to enjoy their sex life as before. In fact, some studies suggest that eliminating worry about birth control may improve sexual satisfaction.
