Are you looking to get a vasectomy in Brisbane? At MSI Vasectomy Brisbane, our procedures are carried out at the Bowen Hills MSI Day Hospital, located at 8 Campbell St, Bowen Hills QLD 4006. We specialise in the ‘no scalpel, open-ended’ technique to minimise infection risks. You can choose between IV sedation and local anaesthetic to suit your comfort needs.
What is a vasectomy?
A vasectomy is a straightforward surgical procedure that involves cutting the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the penis. Post-procedure, the ejaculated semen will no longer contain sperm, making it the most effective permanent contraception for men in Brisbane. A vasectomy should be viewed as irreversible; reversing it is expensive, typically not covered by insurance, and not guaranteed to succeed.
Our Vasectomy Services in Brisbane
At our Brisbane vasectomy clinic, we specialise in performing ‘no scalpel, open-ended’ vasectomies. This technique reduces the risk of infection and ensures a quicker recovery time. Our male vasectomy services in Brisbane offer both IV sedation and local anaesthetic options to cater to your comfort level.
Open-Ended Vasectomy
At our vasectomy clinic in Brisbane, we only perform open-ended vasectomies as this method allows the sperm to be naturally reabsorbed into the body, this means there is much less chance of complications such as congestive epididymitis.
This technique only closes the upper part of the tube, leaving the end connected to the testicle completely open. As a result, the sperm are still released within the scrotum, but the volume is very small.
No-Scalpel Vasectomy
Before the no-scalpel vasectomy technique, a conventional vasectomy would typically require a scalpel incision and stitches. The no-scalpel vasectomy method we use at our Brisbane vasectomy clinic involves a small puncture instead of a traditional incision, minimising the risk of infection and eliminating the need for stitches. This scalpel-free vasectomy technique is highly effective and less invasive.
Anaesthetic options
MSI Brisbane provides a comprehensive service where both IV sedation (IV) and local anaesthetic (LA) are available, depending on your preference. Our LA *painless anaesthetic delivery technique means many patients report experiencing little to no pain when the local anaesthetic is injected.
Our vasectomy doctors will discuss all the details of both options with you so that you can decide which you prefer for the procedure.Â
At MSI Vasectomy we only use the ‘no-scalpel open-ended’ technique, which is fast, effective and decreases the chance of infection.

FAQs About Getting a Vasectomy in Brisbane
If you have any more questions about our Brisbane vasectomy services please don’t hesitate to contact us today. In the meantime please find below our most frequently asked questions about vasectomies.
Can you still ejaculate after a vasectomy?
Yes, after undergoing a vasectomy in Brisbane, you will still ejaculate. The volume of your ejaculate remains almost unchanged as sperm constitutes less than 5% of the total fluid.
Is having a vasectomy painful?
Most men experience minimal discomfort during a vasectomy at our Brisbane vasectomy clinic. Our advanced techniques ensure the procedure is as painless as possible.
Are you put under for a vasectomy?
No, you are not put under for a vasectomy. At MSI Brisbane you have the choice of using a local anaesthetic or IV sedation, but having the procedure under general anaesthetic is not an option.
How effective is a vasectomy?
A vasectomy is the most effective form of male birth control and the procedure has a failure rate of only approximately 0.1%. Contact our Brisbane Vasectomy Clinic to find out more information.
Can I have a vasectomy reversed?
Although a vasectomy should be considered irreversible when you’re deciding whether it’s right for you, an operation to reconnect the tubes (known as the vas deferens) is possible if you want to attempt to recover your fertility. Although considered permanent, vasectomy reversals in Brisbane are possible but expensive and not always successful. They are typically not covered by health insurance.
How long does it take for a man to become sterile after a vasectomy?
After a vasectomy, even though they’ve been disconnected, you may still have viable sperm in your vas deferens. It can take up to 3 months to clear the remaining sperm. You should keep using contraception until a semen test shows a zero sperm count.
How long does it take to recover from a vasectomy?
Recovery time after having a vasectomy will vary for every individual. A large number of men are able to be active on the same day as the procedure and others need to take a few days. It’s important to take the time to recover after a vasectomy as it will help ease any sensitivity or discomfort in the area.
Can you drive after a vasectomy?
It is possible to drive home after a vasectomy but we wouldn’t recommend it. Ideally, you should arrange an alternative ride home from our Brisbane clinic to ensure you’re as comfortable as possible and so that you can begin the healing process immediately after the procedure.
