Vasectomy and tubectomy are both forms of permanent birth control, but they differ in the following ways:
Vasectomy:
– A surgical procedure for men
– Involves cutting and sealing the vas deferens, the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the penis
– Sperm are absorbed by the body instead of being released during ejaculation
– Typically takes 20-30 minutes to perform
– Effective in preventing pregnancy after 20-30 ejaculations
Tubectomy (also known as tubal ligation):
– A surgical procedure for women
– Involves cutting, clipping, or blocking the fallopian tubes, which connect the ovaries to the uterus
– Prevents the egg from traveling through the tubes and being fertilized
– Typically takes 30-60 minutes to perform
– Effective immediately in preventing pregnancy
Both procedures are considered permanent and are usually done as a form of contraception. However, it’s important to note that while they are effective in preventing pregnancy, they do not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
