Vasectomy in Seoul

At Proud Urology Clinic, we understand that family planning decisions are personal and important. If you are considering permanent contraception, a vasectomy is a safe, effective, and reliable option. Our experienced urologists provide expert vasectomy services in a comfortable and confidential environment. We aim to offer you the best possible care and support throughout the procedure and beyond.



What is a Vasectomy?

A vasectomy is a surgical procedure used for male sterilization, providing permanent contraception. During the procedure, the vas deferens, the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the urethra, are cut, sealed, or blocked to prevent sperm from mixing with semen. This makes it impossible for sperm to reach the semen and fertilize an egg.

Vasectomy is highly effective, with a success rate of over 99% in preventing pregnancy. It’s an ideal option for men who are sure they do not want to have children in the future.



Why Choose a Vasectomy?

Men who are certain they no longer want to have children often choose a vasectomy for its:

• Permanent solution: Once performed, a vasectomy offers long-term contraception without the need for ongoing attention or repeated procedures.
• Non-invasive option: Unlike other forms of male contraception, such as condoms, vasectomy is permanent and does not require ongoing use or any hormonal changes.
• Quick and convenient: The procedure is minimally invasive, typically performed in the clinic with a short recovery time.
• Cost-effective: After the initial procedure, vasectomy eliminates the need for future contraceptive methods, making it a cost-effective choice over time.



The Vasectomy Procedure

At Proud Urology Clinic, our skilled urologists perform vasectomies using the latest techniques to ensure minimal discomfort and fast recovery. The procedure typically involves:

1. Local Anesthesia: The area is numbed with local anesthesia to ensure that you experience no pain during the procedure.
2. Tiny Incision or No-Scalpel Technique: In the traditional method, a small incision is made in the scrotum to access the vas deferens. Alternatively, our clinic may use the no-scalpel method, which requires only a tiny puncture, reducing bleeding and recovery time.
3. Sealing or Cutting the Vas Deferens: The vas deferens tubes are either cut, sealed, or blocked to prevent sperm from entering the semen.
4. Sutures: In many cases, no stitches are required, as the incision is small and heals naturally.

The procedure is typically completed within 20-30 minutes, and most patients can return home on the same day.

Recovery After a Vasectomy

After your vasectomy, you can expect a short recovery period. Most men return to normal activities within a few days. We recommend:

• Resting: Take it easy for the first 24-48 hours, avoiding strenuous activity and heavy lifting.
• Pain Management: Mild discomfort is common, but over-the-counter pain medications can help.
• Follow-up Visits: After the procedure, you will need to schedule follow-up visits to ensure everything is healing properly and confirm the effectiveness of the vasectomy.

It’s important to note that the vasectomy does not provide immediate contraception. It can take a few months and several ejaculations before all sperm is cleared from the semen, so alternative birth control methods should be used during this time.
