Vasectomy: male contraception without a condom
Vasectomy (male sterilization) is a method of contraception. The essence of this method is to bandage or cut the vas deferens, which prevents sperm from leaking out. The vas deferens is a blood vessel that carries sperm from the testicles to the urethra. Vasectomy is considered a reversible process. In fact, restoring the lumen of blood vessels does not always give results. Therefore, men need to carefully weigh the pros and cons and make sure that they absolutely do not want to have more children (or no children at all).

To conceive a child, a man needs two things: a sperm and an egg. Then he has to travel a long way from the testicles to the urethra. A closed urethral tube interrupts this “romance”. As the hero of the famous film said: “You will not pass!”, since the purpose of a vasectomy is to remove sperm from the semen to prevent a woman from becoming pregnant.
Vasectomy is the most effective method of contraception. According to the American Urological Association, the risk of unintended pregnancy for men who have had a vasectomy is 2 in 1, 000.
How it happens
The operation is performed in private clinics or public hospitals. Before having a vasectomy, always make an appointment with your doctor to discuss the problem. Firstly, are there any contraindications to surgery?
Doctors typically use two access methods. In the first case, the surgeon makes two small incisions on one side of the scrotum. In the second case, a small hole is made to access both ducts. The ducts are then separated and sutured. At the end of the operation, the doctor applies the necessary stitches. This process occurs under local anesthesia. After surgery, you should avoid sex, tension and other physical activities for at least one week.

“does he need a special condom? Usually he doesn’t ride anymore?” You ask. “No, they don’t roll,” answers the FDA (department director.
Is it effective?
A vasectomy is the most reliable method of contraception for men. It prevents pregnancy in almost 100% of cases. However, it does not take effect immediately. Before having unprotected sex, you need to make sure that the remaining sperm is completely removed from the remaining tubes. This may take up to three months.
When can you use a condom? To do this, after surgery, men regularly provide sperm samples. At the reception, in a specially designated room, the man masturbates until he receives sperm. They are then checked for the presence of active sperm. If none are found, perhaps the man is already in a hurry to have sex “in full sensation.”
Benefits
Why is a vasectomy necessary? This is the most effective and permanent contraceptive. Closure of the vas deferens does not affect the quality, duration, or other criteria of male sexual activity. Male duct cutting is easier and less expensive than female sterilization. This is one of the most affordable and effective ways to prevent pregnancy if a couple decides not to have children.
