Vasectomy Failures Exposed: Could Pregnancy Still Sneak In After Your Snip?
When I consult with men before they get a vasectomy, I go through the details of how to prepare for the surgery, what to expect during the procedure and how to recover at home. Of course, it’s the perfect opportunity for patients to express questions and concerns. I often get inquiries about safety, potential pain and recovery time. The answers, in short, are that vasectomies are very safe, well tolerated and you’ll only need a few days to recover.

More to the point, is there any chance that I can get my partner pregnant afterwards?
