Modern vasectomy as the evolution of male contraception

Modern medicine is constantly looking for innovative solutions in the field of contraception, and one increasingly popular and effective approach is the vasectomy without a scalpel. This state-of-the-art solution, offers an effective method of family planning, eliminating the need for traditional contraceptive methods. A painless and effective procedure, the discovery of which can be a key moment in the development of a relationship for many couples!

Definition and principle of operation

Vasectomy without a scalpel is a surgical procedure that aims to permanently block the vas deferens, preventing the passage of sperm from the testes to the sperm. The innovation of the scalpel-free procedure lies in the use of modern tools and techniques that eliminate the need for scalpel cuts, which reduces recovery time and the risk of complications after the procedure.

During the procedure, the doctor creates access to the vas deferens by dissecting the tissues of the anterior scrotal wall over a 3-4mm section. He or she then cuts through them, removing a 2-3mm-long section from each, and closes the sections of the vas deferens running from the scrotum towards the prostate gland, leading to a permanent blockage of the flow of sperm from the testes to the ejaculate. The procedure itself takes about 30 minutes, is performed under local anaesthetic and does not require hospitalisation. After the procedure, ejaculation remains unchanged, the ejaculate consisting mainly of prostate products, with no sperm present. The vasectomy does not alter the sensation of orgasm. It also does not affect the appearance of sperm - men's semen still looks the same after the procedure. Spermatogenesis still occurs, but the sperm produced is resorbed by the body, or in simpler terms, the body absorbs the sperm produced.

Advantages of a vasectomy without a scalpel

• Reduced risk of complications -traditional vasectomy requires cutting with a scalpel, which carries a certain risk of complications and a longer recovery. With a vasectomy without a scalpel, less disruption of the skin tissue translates into a much lower risk of infection or bleeding.
• Shorter recovery time – avoiding extensive scalpel incisions usually translates into a quicker return to daily activities. Patients can usually return to work and normal activities about 1-2 days after the procedure, which is faster than after a traditional vasectomy, a significant advantage for many men, and they can begin sexual intercourse as soon as 1-2 weeks later.
• Security -the non-scalpel vasectomy procedure has been approved as a safe and effective alternative to the usual vasectomy. Minimised risk of complications, trained specialists, short procedure and recovery times are all factors contributing to the high safety of the procedure.
• Effective contraception - Vasectomy "WBS" is an effective form of contraception. Full effectiveness after a vasectomy occurs after about 3 months. It is then necessary to carry out semen tests to confirm azoospermia - that is, the absence of sperm in the semen. Patients should also remember that in the period between the surgery and the sperm test, it is necessary to use effective methods of contraception.

Decision at the family planning stage

When a couple reaches the stage where they begin to plan for the future of their family, contraceptive decision-making becomes important. Traditional methods, which often place a burden on the woman, can not only be less effective, but also disrupt the balance of the relationship. It is important that the decision to use the procedure is made by mutual consent so that each partner has an equal say in fertility control. Properly supported by conversation and understanding between partners, such decisions is a step towards a modern partnership, where duties and responsibilities are shared, creating a solid foundation for future family life.

Revasectomy

It is worth emphasising that the 'WBS' procedure is a way of obtaining permanent contraception and should not be considered as a method of temporarily abstaining from having offspring. Of course, it is possible to reverse the effects of the procedure.Procedure for vasectomy reversal involves the re-anastomosis of the vas deferens using an operating microscope under general anaesthesia. Of course it is considerably more costly, and invasive, than the vasectomy itself.

Vasectomy without scalpel is an important step in the field of male contraception. Gaining popularity for its many benefits, this innovative procedure offers men an effective and safe tool for fertility control. The decision to have a vasectomy without a scalpel requires careful consideration, but for many couples it offers a convenient and effective family planning solution.
