When it comes to birth control, many men want a safe, permanent, and worry-free solution. A vasectomy has long been one of the most effective options. But now, with modern techniques, men can choose a no-scalpel vasectomy — a minimally invasive procedure that’s quicker, safer, and more comfortable than traditional methods.
In Bangkok, men’s health clinics offer no-scalpel vasectomy in a confidential, professional setting, making it a popular choice for both local and international patients.
What Is a No-Scalpel Vasectomy?
A no-scalpel vasectomy (NSV) is a minor surgical procedure that prevents sperm from mixing with semen during ejaculation.
How it works:
The doctor locates the vas deferens (tubes carrying sperm) under the skin.
Instead of making large incisions, a tiny puncture is created.
The vas deferens are cut and sealed using cauterization or clips.
The puncture heals naturally, leaving no stitches and minimal scarring.

Who Should Consider a Vasectomy?
A no-scalpel vasectomy is suitable for men who:
Are certain they do not want more (or any) children
Want a permanent contraceptive solution
Prefer a low-risk, outpatient procedure
It is not recommended for men who may want to father children in the future, since reversal procedures are complex and not always successful.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Does a vasectomy affect sexual performance?
No. Erections, orgasms, and sexual performance remain the same. Only fertility changes.
2. How long before it’s effective?
It takes 8–12 weeks for remaining sperm to clear, or after around 15 ejaculations, or confirmed no sperm in semen. A follow-up semen test confirms success.
3. Can a vasectomy be reversed?
Reversal is possible but not always successful. Men should consider it permanent.
4. Is the procedure painful?
No. Local anesthesia makes it nearly painless, with mild soreness afterward.
5. Will there be visible scars?
No. The no-scalpel technique leaves no noticeable scarring.
