In recent years, a simple vasectomy for men has become a popular way to decrease pregnancy risks. And there are many reasons why it has become so popular. Fully understanding these reasons can help you and your partner decide which option you want to take. That said, we find that this choice is almost always a better one than long-term female sterilization or monthly birth control procedures that can be quite expensive in comparison or somewhat inconsistent when compared to this treatment option.

Fairly Inexpensive

A simple vasectomy for men is a surprisingly inexpensive surgery that may cost as little as $2,000 to $5,000 per treatment. That may seem rather high to some people but contrast that with the costs of lifetime birth control costs. Women may spend $30-100 per month on their birth control, costing them potentially as much as $1,200 per year if they are not fully insured. A box of condoms can cost $10-20 or more – a sexually active man may go through one each month. That averages out to around $120 to $240 per year which, over a lifetime, easily exceeds the cost of a vasectomy. And if a man has insurance that will cover this process, the costs are even lower, providing even more financial benefits to those who want to prevent pregnancies.

Even if a man ends up becoming inactive sexually or leaves his partner, this process is still cheaper than getting a woman back on birth control or buying boxes of condoms again. In this way, a man who doesn’t want children can get the best bang for their buck, keeping themselves safe while cutting back on their financial impact at the same time – that’s a big win-win for all parties involved here.

Very Dependable

Although you may think that condoms and female birth control combine to be 100 percent effective, that isn’t quite the case. Though both do heavily decrease your chances of causing a pregnancy, a small risk is still present with both. In some cases, it is very possible that both options could fail at the wrong time and trigger a pregnancy. Though rare, this situation has happened more than once.

However, a simple vasectomy for men is the most effective way of stopping a pregnancy that your money can buy. Even though there are a few risks that this process could backfire, a lot of tests are done on your semen before you have unprotected sex. Once it is verified that you no longer ejaculate sperm, you can safely have sex and never anticipate getting your partner pregnant at the same time.

This process is even more efficient than most female sterilization procedures and much safer. A vasectomy will take no more than 10-30 minutes and will cause very little pain and suffering on a man. By contrast, most female sterilization procedures are very painful and require a lot of recovery time. Just as importantly: a vasectomy is much easier to reverse should you and your partner change your minds.

Eliminates Many Risks

Another major benefit of a vasectomy is its relatively risk-free nature. Though some men may experience pain and discomfort for a few weeks after surgery, these side effects are minimal compared to other birth control methods. It is especially safer when compared to long-term female sterilization procedures, as these are often quite painful and may be a much higher risk of side effects.

For example, birth control pills mess with a woman’s hormones and can cause side effects that may be very uncomfortable. Some women experience mood swings on birth control that can be very hard to control. Other women may gain weight or experience other side effects. These problems simply aren’t there with a simple vasectomy for men: the most side effects experienced is a little discomfort.

Even better, this process is also much safer than shots because it only needs to be done once. Just as importantly, it protects a woman from the infections that may occur with IUD. Simply put, there’s no better way to stop pregnancy and protect a woman’s health at the same time. The simplicity of this procedure and its ease of recovery make it the best option for men who want to keep their partners safe.

Lasts for a Long Time

The best thing about vasectomy is that it will last much longer than other types of anti-pregnancy techniques. When done properly, a good vasectomy will last a man’s full life. There are no other treatments that provide this type of long-lasting benefit. Sure, female sterilization may provide a similar benefit for a couple but is much more expensive and more likely to be painful or even fail.

Just as importantly, this type of procedure requires no updates or checkups after it is done. You need no follow-up process unless your semen test reveals you still ejaculate sperm. Instead, you can begin having sex fairly shortly after the process is over. And once your semen has been confirmed sperm-free, you can stop using all other methods of birth control and have fun and safe sex with your partner.

And remember – a simple vasectomy for men is usually reversible with a few simple steps. Though this separate procedure may take a little bit of time to execute properly when compared to the first surgery, it usually takes a very short time and is effective after one treatment. So if you ever change your mind and want children, you can get this process reversed and start trying with your partner ASAP.
