Question submitted for topic Contraception

I would like to recommend a vasectomy to you.

I would only recommend vasectomy as a safe contraception for men. At my university hospital in Basel. At the latest after the end of family planning or, as in our case, without the desire to have children, this is a safe option. The partner no longer needs contraception.

Hello

A vasectomy is very safe if you follow the hospital's instructions for follow-up checks carefully, and although it is generally permitted from the age of 18, many doctors refuse to perform it before the age of 30 because the vasectomy cannot be reversed and you may still want to have children later. A vasectomy should always be very carefully considered.
