How does a vasectomy work?

• The operation works by stopping the sperm made in the testes reaching the semen
• Your body can still produce sperm, but the testicles reabsorb it naturally
• The surgery is under local anaesthetic and lasts about 30 minutes
• You may have some pain and swelling following the procedure but you should be able to return to work in 2 to 3 days
• After surgery, we will check your semen to make sure no sperm is present
• You should use alternative contraception until these tests are complete
• This can take up to 12 weeks.

Will my sex life be affected by a vasectomy?

• A vasectomy will not affect your sex drive or your ability to enjoy sex
• Semen is still produced, there is simply no sperm present
• You should use another form of contraception until we have confirmed that the operation is a success through a semen test
• You should remember that a vasectomy protects against causing pregnancy. but it does not protect against any sexually transmitted infection.
