Vasectomy side effects are minimal in comparison to other surgical procedures. The most common complaints are swelling, bruising and tenderness of the surgical area. These symptoms typically disappear within a few days to a week.
Vasectomy is a form of birth control for men that is meant to be permanent. During vasectomy, a health care provider closes or blocks the tubes that carry sperm. When the tubes are closed, sperm cannot leave a man's body and cause pregnancy. Sperm are made in the testicles. They pass through two tubes called the vasa deferentia to other glands and mix with seminal fluids to form semen.
