What is a Vasectomy?
A vasectomy is a safe, simple, and highly effective form of permanent male contraception. It involves a minor surgical procedure that blocks sperm from reaching the semen, preventing pregnancy. This outpatient procedure is typically performed in under 30 minutes, with minimal recovery time.

Our team at New Freedom Family Medicine is committed to providing high-quality, personalized care. We understand that deciding to have a vasectomy can be a significant decision. That's why we prioritize patient education and support every step of the way. Our goal is to ensure you feel confident and informed about your choice.

What to Expect During Your Vasectomy
At New Freedom Family Medicine, our experienced team ensures your vasectomy is as comfortable and straightforward as possible:
- Consultation: We'll start with a thorough consultation to discuss your goals and answer any questions you may have.
- Procedure: The vasectomy itself is performed under local anesthesia. You'll remain awake but completely comfortable throughout the process.
- Post-Procedure Care: After the procedure, you'll receive detailed instructions on how to care for yourself at home. Most men return to their usual activities within a few days.
While a vasectomy is considered a permanent form of contraception, reversals are possible. However, they can be complicated and are not always successful. It's important to consider the decision carefully.
No, a vasectomy does not affect sexual performance. You will still produce the same amount of semen, just without sperm, and experience the same sensations.
It takes some time for all remaining sperm to be cleared from the semen. We advise using an alternative form of contraception until your follow-up tests confirm a zero sperm count, usually within a few months.
