Hi,

Vasectomy is a surgical procedure for male sterilization. It involves cutting and sealing the vas deferens, which are the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles. This procedure is intended to provide permanent contraception.

In terms of the procedure, it is usually done under local anesthesia and typically takes about 20-30 minutes to complete. During the procedure, a small incision is made in the scrotum, and the vas deferens is cut and sealed. This prevents sperm from reaching the semen and thus makes a man sterile.

As for the cost of vasectomy, it can vary depending on various factors such as geographic location, healthcare facility, and the surgeon's fees. Additionally, there may be additional fees for pre-procedure tests and post-procedure follow-up visits. It is best to consult with a healthcare facility or specialist in your area to get an accurate estimate of the cost.

After the vasectomy procedure, it is important to follow the post-operative instructions provided by your healthcare provider. This may include rest, avoiding strenuous activity, and using pain medications as prescribed. It is also important to use alternative contraception methods until your healthcare provider confirms that there is no sperm in your semen, which may take a few weeks or months.

Also, it can be done under General anesthesia but costs slightly higher.
