What are vasectomies?
- Vasectomy is the common name for permanent male contraception.
- A vasectomy is a surgical procedure that involves cutting and sealing the two "vas deferens", the tubes that carry sperm from the testes to the penis.
- After the procedure (and only once you have the all-clear), ejaculated semen will contain no sperm.
- The procedure is permanent, and should only be considered if you are certain you no longer want to have children.
