Urologists are doctors who specialise in diverse conditions affecting the urinary tract and diseases of the reproductive system. In India, a qualified and well-experienced urologist or general surgeon performs vasectomies.

No, vasectomy does not have any impact on mortality. There is no significant life-threatening risk in undergoing a vasectomy. However, if you are taking any medication or have a history of cardiovascular disease, you first need to consult your urologist.

Yes, vasectomy can be reversed. But that doesn’t guarantee to conceive a child. The longer the vasectomy duration, the less likely are the chances of a successful reversal. Also, the success rate decreases with each reversal.

Vasectomy has no direct impact on sexual performance, ejaculation or erectile functionality. The person will continue to ejaculate normally. Post-surgery, one may experience slight discomfort during the first few ejaculations.

Generally, men undergo vasectomy between the ages of 30-54 years, with an average age of 35-38 years. Vasectomy should never be performed if there is any chance that you might want children in the future.
