Dr Tra Anh Duy said that the current popular method of male sterilization is cut - vasectomy (vasectomy) . This is the most effective, economical and safe way to prevent pregnancy. The surgeon removes one to two centimeters of vas deferens and closes the two ends so that the sperm does not have a way out and drains at the testicles, then dissolves.

This sterilization technique only cuts out the sperm line without preventing fluid from the seminal vesicles and prostate. So after sterilization, the amount of semen of the gentleman remains the same.

The procedure does not affect testosterone secretion cells, so the gentleman's testosterone level after sterilization is normal. As a result, patients still retain their sexual ability, do not lose or reduce the amount of hair, beards which are affected by the concentration of testosterone in the body.

Another method of sterilization in men is to block the percutaneous vasal occlusion. The technician injects chemicals directly into the vas deferens to block temporary vas deferens (polymer use) or permanently (using fibrosis agents). However, this method is rarely used.

According to Dr. Duy, male sterilization has a nearly 100% successful rate of contraception. Research has found that less than one in 100 women who have sex with a partner who has had vasectomy have been able to become pregnant.

Note that after the vasectomy, the amount of sperm remaining in the pathway of the sperm, this procedure has no immediate contraceptive effect. Because the sperm's life cycle lasts about three months, the couples also need to abstain from that time so that the sperm is completely gone. Or at least 20 ejaculation is safe when having sex without using any contraception. So the doctor advised the sterilized couples to use temporary contraception until after three months.

Gentlemen have sterilized after the vasectomy column, after three months, try semen test to see if sperm is still in sperm. So the semen returned as a result of sperm-free sperm, which can be assured of this method of contraception.

Dr. Duy recommends that the birth control method is only suitable for men who have enough children and do not want to give birth anymore. With the advantage of simple tricks, only a little annoying, fast recovery time. However, sterilization does not prevent sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV. So gentlemen should consider using condoms when having sex, especially those with multiple partners.

Permanent sterilization must be done at a specialist clinic or medical facility to ensure safety. A small number of patients may have hemorrhagic complications or hematoma, infection, sperm granulomatous tumors, post-vasectomy pain syndrome.

Although the guarantee is very effective, Dr. Duy asserts that no sterilization method is completely 100% contraceptive. Male sterilization may fail because the two ends of the vas deferens in the vas deferral are dislodged and the sperm loops through the ends of the tube.
