What is Vasectomy? The man decides to go to the surgeon.

Vasectomy – male contraception. Vasectomy is a male surgical contraception. In recent years, this method is increasingly being used in Latvia. In the world, especially in the US and UK, it has been a popular method for decades. Usually it is chosen by couples who have already provided their offspring. The operation is relatively simple and takes 30-40 minutes. During this time, the doctor will cut both seed lines connecting the testicles with genital tract, and their ends are lit up or snagged so that the sperm will no longer get into the semen fluid. Manipulation can be done with one or two cuts, as a surgeon seems simpler. When choosing local anesthetics, half an hour before going home should be taken into consideration at the treatment institution. If the operation takes place in general anesthesia, a few hours should be made. A centimeter long wound heals in a week. A little discomfort may occur for a few days in the testicles, but nothing changes afterwards – this operation does not harm either health or sexual life. For men who have a bias against the operation, it’s worth remembering that vasectomy is completely inaccurate compared to castration because the testicles are not overlaid and hence the production of male hormones does not decrease.
