a medical operation in which a man’s ducts or tubes that carry sperm are cut and sealed to prevent impregnation or pregnancy as a method of contraception without anesthesia

Example

A vasectomy is a simple surgery done by a doctor in an office, hospital, or clinic. The small tubes in your scrotum that carry sperm are cut or blocked off, so sperm can’t leave your body and cause pregnancy. The procedure is very quick, and you can go home the same day. And it’s extremely effective at preventing pregnancy — almost 100%.
