A member asked:

Male 38. don't want children ever (ankle biting monsters). thinking of having a vasectomy. are there any risks? anything i should know?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Permanent: Is permanent, and it is possible To get someone pregnant even after I vasectomy for a short period of time. You need at least 20 ejaculations after vasectomy and make sure to test for lack of sperm before resuming unprotected sexual intercourse. Hope this helps!
