Vasectomy in Kent

Vasectomy is an effective form of male birth control that prevents sperm from joining semen. It has over a 99% success rate and is more often than not performed as an outpatient procedure.

Vasectomy in Kent

Here at Spencer Private Hospitals we have leading Urologists that are experts in Vasectomies and Vasectomy reversal. Our consultants will guide you through your journey from start to finish, giving advice both pre and post procedure.

The Procedure

A vasectomy is usually undertaken using local anaesthetic. It is a relatively quick procedure that routinely takes under an hour. Despite it being a permanent fix for men, it can be reversed with another procedure (Vasectomy Reversal). Local anaesthetic is used to numb the region. All of the details will be discussed with your Consultant during your consultation.

Success Rate

The success rate is extremely high. According to Male Health “The overall failure rate for vasectomy rate is 0.15 percent, but that doesn't give an accurate picture of its real effectiveness. Most vasectomy failures happen during the first couple of months after the procedure, when live sperm may still present in a man's semen.” You can be extremely confident of the success of this simple contraceptive procedure.

Advantages

• Vasectomy is simpler and safer procedure compare to female sterilisation and provides a reliable alternative

• Vasectomy does not affect your sex drive, ability to get an erection or your testosterone levels

• The success rate is very high, and it can be reversed in another procedure if required.
