There are several options available for couples when it comes to choosing a method of birth control. Often, the responsibility falls on the female, who has many choices available to her. Males, on the other hand, don't have as many options. According to the World Health Organization, sterilization is the most popular form of birth control around the world.
No cut vasectomies are performed either by a general surgeon, urologist or family medical doctor. When choosing a doctor to perform a no cut vasectomy, there are some important questions to ask before deciding who will perform the procedure for you. Ask any physician you are considering how many no scalpel procedures he typically performs in a year, as well as the total number he has performed during his career to date.
In 1974, an alternative method to conventional vasectomy was introduced in China by Dr. Li Shunqiang, and it was introduced to North America in 1988. It is referred to as the "no cut" or "no scalpel" vasectomy and is a safer, preferable alternative to conventional vasectomy. This procedure has the same outcome as conventional vasectomy, but is quicker, taking between 5 to 15 minutes to perform.
In this procedure, a local anesthesia is used and the skin of the scrotum is not cut. Instead, a tiny puncture is made using a special tool, whereby both tubes can be accessed and tied off. The vas deferens is clipped using a Vasclip and then the section of tube between the clips is removed. In this procedure, use of the Vasclip to close off the tubes reduces the risk of pain and complications.
The procedure takes around 30 minutes to perform from start to finish. Risks with this procedure include: infection at the site of incision, which may extend to inside the scrotum; bleeding under the skin, resulting in swelling or bruising; and leakage of sperm from the vas deferens into the surrounding tissue, resulting in the formation of a granuloma, or small bump.
