What is a Vasectomy?
A vasectomy is a minor surgical procedure that helps prevent pregnancy by blocking or cutting off ducts that carry sperm, tubes called the vas deferens. This form of male sterilization is over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy. The procedure is simple and quick enough that vasectomies can be performed in a doctor’s office, hospital, or a health care clinic. Patients can usually return home right after their procedure, which often lasts about 20 minutes.1
Scalpel Vasectomy
A scalpel vasectomy is performed via one or two small incisions in the scrotum. The vas deferens is cut and a segment may be removed before the ends are sealed. These steps are then repeated on the other vas.2
No-Scalpel Vasectomy
A no-scalpel vasectomy procedure is performed through a tiny hole made in the skin, only large enough for the vas to be lifted through. The rest of the procedure typically continues as in a scalpel vasectomy.3

How Does Vasectomy Compare to Other Forms of Birth Control?
Vasectomy is one of the most reliable methods of birth control, and is nearly 100% successful at preventing pregnancy. It is a low-risk outpatient procedure, and much much less expensive than surgical female sterilization, called tubal ligation. Vasectomy is also less expensive than long-term birth control medications for women, like birth control pills.7
Most health insurance plans cover some form of birth control, but it varies by insurance company if they cover vasectomy.8
Does Vasectomy Have Side Effects?
Serious side effects are rare, but as with any surgical procedure, there are some minor but uncommon risks associated with vasectomy:
Can Vasectomy be Reversed?
Vasectomy should be considered permanent. Vasectomy reversals are more complicated and expensive, and there is a chance that the reversal procedure will not be able to restore fertility. 11
