Dr. Glass: Vasectomy Myths
Take this weekend off! Turn 15-minutes into hours of relaxation time. While resting for the recommended 24-48 hours following your vasectomy procedure, you could watch your favorite movies or sports teams, read the book you just haven't had time for, and much more. Relax and enjoy yourself without feeling guilty.
A vasectomy is a low-risk, minimally invasive procedure that provides permanent birth control for men (male sterilization). Sperm is prevented from combining with semen by sealing the tubes that normally carry the sperm. The procedure takes only 10-15 minutes and can be done right at the Advanced Urology offices.
Vasectomy: No Scalpel, No Needle & Clip
At Advanced Urology, we use no scalpel, no needle vasectomy procedures that offer the greatest benefits to men. Plus, we offer vasectomies using the new Pro-Vas Occlusion Clip with no cutting of the vas deferens.
