Vasectomy

This is done for male sterilisation which is said to be is the most effective method. It will involve removing of a small section of vas from both sides with insertion of tissue between the divided ends to stop them re‑joining.  The semen no longer contains sperm after the tubes are cut, so conception cannot occur.
