Non-Scalpel Vasectomy
Non-Scalpel Vasectomy is a simple, safe surgical procedure for permanent male fertility control. Using a single puncture technique in the scrotum, the Tube (called a “vas”) which leads from the testicle is cut and sealed to stop sperm from leaving. . The puncture seldom requires suturing or stitches. The procedure usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes and is performed as an out-patient procedure in the doctor’s surgery under local anaesthetic injection.
Since the procedure simply interrupts the delivery of sperm, it does not change hormonal function – leaving sexual drive and potency unaffected.
The primary difference between non-scalpel vasectomy compared to the conventional vasectomy is that the vas deferens is controlled and grasped in a less traumatic manner. This results in less pain and fewer postoperative complications.
The non-scalpel technique is simply a more elegant and less traumatic way to control the vas and proceed with sperm flow interruption.
