Are You Considering A Vasectomy?

There’s no doubting that a vasectomy is one of the most effective methods of birth control available. However, because its effects can be permanent, you and your partner really need to consider whether you are ready to take this step and ask yourselves if you are sure that children aren’t going to be a part of your relationship at any point. It’s true that vasectomy reversals can and are performed regularly these days; but they are expensive and there’s no guarantee that the patient will ever regain his fertility.

Despite the success rate of the vasectomy, it is not impossible that you could still end up fathering a child. Firstly, your surgeon should make you aware of the fact that you are still able to father children after undergoing your vasectomy for a few months. Throughout this period, your doctor will continue to examine you to see if you still continue to have viable sperm. You will have to continue to use an alternative form of birth control during this time.

The other scenario is if the vasa deferentia actually grows back and makes it possible for your sperm to reach your penis once again. This is known to happen, though it is very rare. The likelihood of it occurring is believed to be something around 1 in a 1000.

Whilst a vasectomy is an effective method of birth control, it’s important that you realize that it can’t and won’t protect you from any sexually transmitted diseases. If you want some protection from sexually transmitted diseases then you will still have to use a condom. However, if you and your partner enjoy a monogamous relationship, then you and your partner can begin to enjoy unprotected sex without having to worry about pregnancy.

A vasectomy isn’t for everyone and is certainly a big step. But as long as you and your partner are sure that children aren’t to play a part in your future together or if pregnancy is dangerous for your partner because of a medical condition then a vasectomy could be the perfect solution for you and your partner.
