    $600 for a vasectomy in a private clinic booked and performed within a week of booking. 15 minute operation with no needles and no scalpel.

        No they use a numbing spray then punch a small hole then pull the vas deferens out the small hole and do the procedure. It heals up to a pin hole sized mark that can barely be seen.

        I was in to work that night on desk duty(with ice packs) for a few weeks rather than my normal heavy lifting which I went back to soon after.

          It is free elsewhere but has a longer recovery time and uses a surgical method that has more negative effects I didn’t want to deal with.

          Also it meant dealing with a doctor who wasn’t going to question me being young and childfree and wanting to remain childfree.
