Vasectomy

Vasectomy is available through Mishe Health Plan at a published cash price, paid when you book.

A vasectomy is a minor surgical procedure performed as a permanent method of male contraception. It involves cutting and sealing the vas deferens, the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the urethra. By interrupting this pathway, sperm cannot mix with semen, preventing fertilization during ejaculation. The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia, and it can be performed using traditional surgical techniques or a no-scalpel method, which minimizes bleeding and reduces recovery time. Vasectomy is highly effective, but it does not provide immediate contraception; it usually takes several months and follow-up semen tests to confirm the absence of sperm.
