1-2 DaysVasectomy is a simple and highly effective surgical procedure designed for permanent male contraception. During the procedure, the small tubes (vas deferens) that carry sperm from the testicles are cut or sealed, preventing sperm from mixing with semen during ejaculation. As a result, a man can no longer father children naturally. Vasectomy is a popular choice for men who are certain they do not want to have more or any children in the future. It is considered a safe, low-risk procedure with a very high success rate.
A vasectomy is usually done under local anesthesia and typically takes around 15 to 30 minutes. There are two main types: the conventional vasectomy, where small cuts are made to access the vas deferens, and the no-scalpel vasectomy, which uses a tiny puncture to reach and block the tubes. Both techniques are highly effective, but the no-scalpel method is often preferred for its quicker healing and lower risk of complications. After the tubes are cut or sealed, the skin is closed with stitches or allowed to heal naturally. Patients can usually return home the same day.
Vasectomy is over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy, making it one of the most reliable forms of birth control available. It eliminates the need for other contraceptive methods, allowing couples to enjoy intimacy without worrying about unintended pregnancy. The procedure does not affect testosterone levels, sexual performance, or pleasure. Men continue to produce semen; it simply does not contain sperm. Vasectomy is also cost-effective in the long term compared to other forms of birth control.

Recovery from a vasectomy is usually quick. Mild discomfort, swelling, or bruising may occur in the scrotum area for a few days, but these symptoms typically resolve with rest, ice packs, and over-the-counter pain relief. Most men can return to work and normal activities within two to three days but are advised to avoid strenuous activity for about a week. It’s important to continue using other contraception methods until a follow-up test confirms that sperm are no longer present in the semen.
The cost of vasectomy in India is quite affordable compared to many other countries, making it an accessible option for men considering permanent contraception. The average cost ranges from ₹20,000 to ₹50,000, depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s expertise, and the technique used. This cost usually covers consultation, surgery, anesthesia, and follow-up visits, offering an excellent value for those seeking a permanent solution.
