• Chronic Infection

  While adverse events following vasectomy are relatively uncommon ( PIP 1992 ), men may experience bleeding, bruising, infection, acute and chronic pain after the procedure ( RCOG 2004 ). [doi.org]

• Veterinarian

  Patient is able to perform his own semen analysis (eg, he is a physician, dentist, or veterinarian). Our findings suggest that patient age is also an important determinant. [doi.org]

• Dysarthria

  We report the case of a 36-year-old man who presented with S. lugdunensis endocarditis, dysarthria, and hemiparesis 5 weeks after a vasectomy. To our knowledge, this is the first report of embolic stroke caused by S. lugdunensis endocarditis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Sperm Count Decreased

  Sperm counts were maintained with increasing time after vasectomy, but motile sperm counts decreased significantly (p © 2013 The Authors Andrology published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd on behalf of American Society of Andrology. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

This can be a frustrating process for both the patient and clinician as there is no well-recognized diagnostic regimen or reliable effective treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In this study we better define the role and effect of vasectomy reversal in the treatment of men with the post-vasectomy pain syndrome. [doi.org]

The etiology of post-vasectomy pain syndrome is not clearly delineated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Some postulated etiologies include epididymal congestion, tender sperm granuloma and/or nerve entrapment at the vasectomy site. To our knowledge nerve proliferation has not been evaluated previously as a cause of pain. [doi.org]

The contradictions which arise between the clinical and large‐scale epidemiological studies may be the result of methodological or experimental conditions. [doi.org]

Abstract Background: Vasectomy has been implicated as a risk factor for prostate cancer in multiple epidemiologic studies over the past 25 years. Whether this relationship is causal remains unclear. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The results support the hypothesis that vasectomy is associated with an increased risk of advanced or lethal prostate cancer,” said co-author Lorelei Mucci, associate professor of epidemiology at HSPH. [news.harvard.edu]

Vasectomy prevents pregnancy nearly 100 percent of the time. It’s the most effective birth control method for men. However, vasectomy isn’t immediately effective. [healthline.com]

During VASECTOMY, the vas is tied off in the scrotum in order to prevent sperms passing that point. [web.archive.org]

It prevents pregnancy round the clock for the rest of your life. So once your doctor says there’s no longer sperm in your semen, that’s pretty much it — you don’t have to do anything else to prevent pregnancy. [plannedparenthood.org]
