vasectomy

A vasectomy (male sterilisation) is a surgical procedure to cut and seal the tubes that carry a man's sperm to permanently prevent pregnancy. It's usually carried out under local anaesthetic, where you're awake but don't feel any pain, and takes about 15 minutes.

• Vasectomy is nearly 100 percent effective in preventing pregnancy.
• Can be done as outpatient surgery with a low risk of complications or side effects.
• Cost effective
• No need to take birth control steps before sex, such as putting on a condom.
