Are Vasectomies Reversible? 5 Facts You Should Know About The Form of Male Birth Control

It is true that a vasectomy procedure is simpler than female sterilization surgery. It’s an outpatient surgery where a doctor blocks the vas deferens — the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to other glands, where the sperm mixes with other fluids and become semen, the stuff that comes out when a man ejaculates.

And vasectomies are indeed very effective — they have a failure rate of less than one percent.
