FOX CHASE-TEMPLE UROLOGIC INSTITUTE

VASECTOMY AT TEMPLE HEALTH

A safe, quick outpatient procedure performed by experienced urologists.

A vasectomy is a safe, permanent form of birth control, and the procedure is simpler than most men expect. It takes about 20 to 30 minutes in the office with local numbing, and most men return to desk work within a few days. Temple urologists perform the procedure routinely, walk you through every step beforehand, and answer the questions men ask most about recovery, effectiveness, and what to expect afterward. There is no pressure and no judgment, just clear information so you can decide with confidence. Start with a consultation by requesting an appointment.

DOES A VASECTOMY HURT?

You get local numbing, so the procedure itself should not hurt. Mild soreness for a few days afterward is normal.

CAN A VASECTOMY BE REVERSED?

It should be considered permanent. Reversal is possible but not guaranteed, so it is best to be sure before you decide.
