Vasectomy

by Sharon Hopkins


A vasectomy is an operation in which a physician ties off the tubes that are known as the vas deferens in the man’s penal cavity. The vans deferens are the tubes that carry sperm that is released upon ejaculation. A vasectomy causes a man to become infertile. This means that the man will be unable to father any more children.

A vasectomy is an effective way for a man to have sterilization. This is essentially a permanent type of birth control that allows a man to have sex without the risk of impregnating a woman. A man usually chooses to have a vasectomy performed; this is a medical procedure that is a personal choice. A vasectomy is supposed to be a permanent form of sterilization that is irreversible. However, in some cases a man can have a vasectomy reversal but this is a difficult and very expensive operation.

A vasectomy is performed by numbing the man in his penal area. This is a type of medical procedure that can be performed right in a doctor’s office. The man can have the vasectomy and then go home right afterwards. An urologist usually performs the vasectomy. An urologist is a type of medical doctor that specializes in treating specific conditions that seem to affect the male urinary and reproductive system. The numbing agent is injected on both sides of the testicles around the scrotum. The vasectomy is performed with just a small puncture, “no-scalpel” in the scrotum. The vans deferens are then cut or interrupted in a number of different ways. The tubes may or may not be removed.

A man who feels that he may have made a mistake or a poor decision can have a vasectomy reversal. The man must understand that a vasectomy reversal can only be performed as long as the vas deferens tubes were not removed. A vasectomy reversal is a very expensive and complicated procedure. The results of reversal surgery will not be known until months after the surgery is performed. For some men a vasectomy reversal does not work. Usually a man has a vasectomy reversal if he meets a woman and then decides to have children after already having a vasectomy. It is very important to weigh all of the benefits and risks concerned with having a vasectomy.

There are some cases of pregnancy after vasectomy. Pregnancy after vasectomy usually means that the operation did not totally sterilizer the male. It seems that if pregnancy occurs then the vans deferens tubes are still allowing sperm to be released when a man ejaculates. Pregnancy after vasectomy is very rare and only occurs in a small amount of people.
