Vasectomy
is a widely used and highly effective method of permanent male contraception
used by some 50 million couples worldwide. |
|
|
| |
It
involves a minor operation in which the tubes that transport sperm
are divided and sealed through a small opening made in the scrotum
under local anaesthetic. |

Vasectomy
is a permanent procedure and should be viewed as irreversible.
It should therefore only be undertaken for an individual or couple
who are sure that they do not wish to have more children - although
reversal is technically possible it has a low success rate and is
expensive. |
