Vasectomy
Vasectomy is a safe and effective birth control for men intent on never fathering children. It is a minor surgical procedure that involves cutting and tying the vas deferens, which are the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the penis. Vasectomy is highly effective in preventing pregnancy, with a failure rate of less than 1%.
If you are considering a vasectomy, we encourage you to talk to the Urology Specialists of St. Luke's to learn more about the procedure and whether it is right for you. We offer vasectomy consultations and resources at our convenient locations in the greater St. Louis area.
