The Process

What is a Vasectomy?

A vasectomy is a minor surgical procedure that provides permanent birth control for men. It involves cutting or sealing the vas deferens (the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the urethra) to prevent sperm from mixing with semen. This prevents pregnancy while maintaining normal sexual function, ejaculation, and hormone levels.

What are the Benefits of a Vasectomy?

Highly Effective: Over 99% effective in preventing pregnancy.

Permanent: A long-term solution for birth control.

Minimally Invasive: Performed under local anesthesia with minimal downtime.

Cost-Effective: More affordable than long-term contraceptive methods.

No Hormonal Side Effects: Unlike some female contraceptives, vasectomy does not affect hormones.

Low Risk: Complications are rare and usually minor.

What is the Vasectomy Process?

Pre-Vasectomy Consultation

Before your vasectomy, Dr. Kordi or Dr. Ali will meet with you for a consultation to make sure you’re fully prepared and comfortable with the procedure.

Undergo your Vasectomy Procedure

After your Pre-Vasectomy consultation, our clinic will book in your procedure, and provide you with information to prepare you. The procedure takes 15-30 minutes.

Post Procedure

You’ll receive instructions on how to care for yourself, including our phone number if you have any questions or concerns. We’ll also give you a pathology form for a follow-up semen test to confirm it was successful.

What to expect?

Consultation: A discussion with the doctor to address questions, review medical history, and ensure vasectomy is the right choice.

Procedure: Performed in-office under local anesthesia. Takes about 15–30 minutes. Involves making a small opening in the scrotum to access and cut/seal the vas deferens.

Recovery: Most men return to normal activities within a few days. Mild discomfort, swelling, or bruising may occur but typically resolves quickly. Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activity for about a week.
