What is a vasectomy?

A vasectomy stands as the only permanent method of contraception, involving a minor surgical procedure to sever the vas deferens. This ensures sperm cannot reach the seminal fluid, effectively preventing pregnancy, making a vasectomy the most effective form of permanent contraception.

Our vasectomy services in Bowen Hills

At MSI Vasectomy, we exclusively use the ‘MSI No Scalpel Open Ended technique’, known for its lower infection rates. Patients also have the option of IV sedation or local anaesthetic, catering to individual comfort levels.

Open ended vasectomy

At MSI Vasectomy we only perform the open-ended vasectomy method, where the lower end of the vas deferens remains unsealed, allowing sperm to be naturally absorbed by the body. This significantly reduces post-procedure complications.

No scalpel vasectomy

The no scalpel vasectomy technique, a significant advancement over traditional methods, requires no scalpel incisions or stitches. Instead, a tiny puncture is made using specially designed forceps, enhancing safety and reducing infection risks.

Anaesthetic options

MSI Vasectomy in Bowen Hills offers both IV sedation and local anaesthesia. Our painless anaesthetic delivery technique* ensures most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. Our vasectomy doctors will discuss the details of each option, helping you make an informed choice.

FAQ
FAQs

If you have any more questions about a vasectomy in Bowen Hills please don’t hesitate to contact us today. In the meantime please find below our most frequently asked questions about vasectomies.

Yes, you will still ejaculate after undergoing a vasectomy. This surgical procedure does not affect the production of seminal fluid, which constitutes the majority of ejaculate. The only difference is that the semen will no longer contain sperm, as the vasectomy procedures involve severing or blocking the vas deferens to prevent sperm transport.

Vasectomies are among the most effective surgical procedures for permanent contraception, with a success rate exceeding 99.9%. They work by preventing sperm from entering the ejaculate, thereby significantly reducing the chance of pregnancy. It’s important to note, however, that full effectiveness is not immediate and follow-up tests are required to confirm the absence of sperm.

No, a vasectomy does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The procedure solely prevents the release of sperm during ejaculation but does not affect the transmission of infections. Other protective measures, such as condoms, are still necessary to reduce the risk of STIs.

No, a vasectomy will not affect your sex drive or sexual function. This procedure targets the vas deferens and does not interfere with the hormones that drive sexual desire. Most men report no change in their sexual arousal, erections, orgasms, or overall sexual experience post-vasectomy.
