What are the effects of male sterilization on women?

There are many ways for men to use contraception, such as condoms and sterilization. Generally, sterilization has little side effects on the human body, and the contraceptive effect is better after sterilization. After sterilization, you should pay attention to eating a nutritious diet to help your body recover. Some couples worry that their husbands will be bad for their health if they have sterilization. What are the effects of sterilization on women? Let's take a look.

1. What are the effects of men’s sterilization on women?

It will not affect the health of the body. If a man undergoes a sterilization, he will still feel the sensation of ejaculation, but the semen will not be ejected from the body, will not cause the spouse to become pregnant, will not affect the normal sex life, and will not cause any problems. You can rest assured. The requirements for women will not change.

2. Postoperative Diet

Eat a balanced diet, pay attention to nutritional balance, eat light food, avoid eating raw, cold, spicy and other irritating foods as much as possible, and avoid drinking.

3. Postoperative Care

1. Observe for 2 hours after the operation to check for any abnormalities such as bleeding.

2. Take a one-week break, during which time you should avoid heavy physical labor and strenuous exercise.

3. If there is bleeding from the scrotal incision, scrotal swelling, or cyanosis of the skin after the operation, you should seek medical attention immediately.

4. If scrotal pain persists within a few days after the operation and gradually worsens, you should go to the hospital for treatment immediately.

5. Remove the wound dressing 5 days after the operation. If there are sutures, remove them within 5 to 7 days.

6. Avoid sexual intercourse for 2 weeks after the operation. If spermicide is not injected, contraception should be continued for at least 2 months or more after ejaculation 10 times. If conditions permit, it is best to perform a routine semen examination. Only after confirming that there is no sperm can other contraceptive measures be stopped.

4. Male sterilization is more convenient than female sterilization

1. Vasectomy is simple. It is located under the skin of the scrotum, superficially, and easily hooked, with a low chance of accidental ligation. There are no important organs, blood vessels, or nerves next to the vas deferens, so it is not easy to be accidentally injured. The incision is small, does not enter the abdominal cavity, has no obvious pain or bleeding, and requires few or no sutures.

2. Vasectomy does not leave any sequelae and does not affect physical strength and sexual function. At the same time, men are generally open-minded, straightforward, and less suspicious and worrying, so the impact of psychological factors is smaller than that of women.

Vascular ligation will not affect the secretion of male hormones or health, because the vas deferens is purely used to transport sperm, while the male hormones secreted by the testicles belong to the endocrine system and are transported outward through the blood circulation, and have nothing to do with the vas deferens.

Female sterilization requires general or partial anesthesia and is more expensive than male sterilization. Male sterilization only requires outpatient surgery, local anesthesia, and very small incisions. A small incision of about 0.5 cm is made on each side of the scrotum. The patient can leave the hospital on the same day without hospitalization.
