How is getting sterilized with Dr. Beard better than elsewhere?

Many men wonder and ask many questions about male sterilization, such as “Does sterilization hurt, doctor?” This is a very common question. I would like to answer that male sterilization is a type of surgery. Saying it doesn’t hurt at all would not be true, but the pain lasts only a short time, about 2-3 minutes.

And can I have general anesthesia during the sterilization surgery? The doctor would answer that it is possible, but it might be like “riding an elephant to catch a grasshopper,” because if you have general anesthesia, you must fast, avoid water, have blood tests, lung checks, and heart examinations, which is not worth the slight pain for about 2-3 minutes since the surgery time is short.

Another question is, doctor, is male sterilization dangerous? Generally, any surgery, whether small or large, can have complications. For example, male sterilization may cause bleeding in the scrotum, but the chance is very low, less than 1%.

Therefore, after the procedure, the doctor will recommend wearing tight underwear, going home to rest, avoiding exercise, and heavy work for about 1 week. This article has compiled the advantages, disadvantages, preparation, procedure, and self-care after sterilization for men.

Advantages of Male Sterilization

• Easy to perform, safe, and takes little time
• Minimal pain
• No contraindications for any diseases except skin diseases in the scrotal area
• No need for hospital stay or recovery time
• Can perform activities or work normally, just be careful not to disturb or dirty the wound
• Highly effective, reducing worries about contraception
• More effective in contraception than female sterilization
• Reduces burden and risk for the female partner
• Lower cost than other contraceptive methods
• Low risk and side effects
• Sexual function, libido, erection, and ejaculation remain normal as before surgery
• Does not cause physical deterioration or premature aging
• Permanent sterilization

Disadvantages of Male Sterilization

• After surgery, there may be pain, swelling, bleeding, blood clots in the scrotum, or infection at the surgical wound
• Not sterile immediately after surgery; it takes about 3 months. The doctor will schedule a semen analysis to check for sperm to confirm sterility

Preparation Before Male Sterilization

Before undergoing male sterilization surgery, you must meet with the doctor to receive information and details about sterilization for both husband and wife. The doctor will ask questions to ensure that the person undergoing sterilization truly does not want to have children anymore because sterilization is a permanent contraceptive method. If you agree to proceed, you may prepare as follows:

• The doctor will perform a physical examination and medical history before surgery
• For those currently treating illnesses with blood-thinning medications, the doctor may consider stopping the medication before surgery
• Before surgery, trim the hair in the scrotal area as short as possible; shaving is not recommended as it may cause wounds
• Shower and wash the groin and genital area thoroughly and avoid applying powder
• Wear clean, loose, and comfortable clothing on the day of sterilization

Male Sterilization Procedure

Male sterilization is a type of surgery that is easy to perform, takes little time, and is safer than female sterilization. The current male sterilization procedure is divided into two main methods as follows:

Male Sterilization Procedure Using a Scalpel to Incise the Skin

1. Clean and prepare the scrotal skin area for surgery
2. Inject local anesthesia at the vas deferens slightly above the testicle
3. Once the anesthesia takes effect, the doctor will make 1-2 incisions about 1 centimeter in size on the scrotum above the vas deferens
4. After locating the vas deferens, the doctor cuts and ties both ends of the vas deferens and then releases them back under the skin as before
5. Suture the incised skin with dissolvable stitches

Male Sterilization Procedure Using a Skin-Piercing Tool

Sterilization using a piercing tool, also called “no-scalpel sterilization,” is a commonly used method with the main steps as follows:

1. Clean and prepare the scrotal skin area for surgery
2. Inject local anesthesia at the vas deferens slightly above the testicle
3. A sharp-ended tool pierces a small hole in the scrotal skin about 0.5 – 1 cm to locate the vas deferens, then hooks it out using a loop-shaped instrument inserted to catch the vas deferens
4. The doctor cuts and ties both ends of the vas deferens and then releases them back under the skin as before
5. Because the wound is small, suturing is not necessary; only a plaster is applied to cover the wound

Self-Care After Male Sterilization

• Get enough rest
• If there is pain or swelling, you can take painkillers and apply cold compresses to the wound area
• Within 24 hours after surgery, you can do light work
• Avoid exercise or heavy lifting for 3-4 days
• Do not let the surgical wound get wet for at least 3 days
• Avoid sexual intercourse for the first 7 days after surgery because sperm may still remain in the semen during this period. For 2-3 months after surgery, contraception is required during intercourse. The doctor will schedule a semen analysis to confirm no sperm presence
• Until the doctor confirms no sperm in the semen, use other contraceptive methods such as condoms
