- 4
Recovery at home
You go home the same day with written aftercare advice.
- 5
Semen testing
A vasectomy is not immediately effective. You continue other contraception until a semen test confirms clearance.
Recovery
Aftercare and going home
The procedure is under local anaesthetic, so you are awake and go home the same day.
Expect some discomfort and bruising for a few days. Supportive underwear and rest help.
Follow the specific advice from the clinical team on returning to work, exercise and sexual activity.
Continue using contraception until semen testing confirms the vasectomy has worked.
