Get a Vasectomy at Planned Parenthood of Greater New York! 

Consider this safe and effective form of permanent birth control.  It takes the worry out of sex and keeps the enjoyment.

Step 1

Make an appointment for an initial visit. Then, wait. New York requires a 30-day waiting period between consultation and getting the procedure. 

Step 2

Now it's time to get the procedure. It's a safe procedure that takes less than 20 minutes. We use the no-incision method. 

Step 3

Recovery. You can go home right after. Most lose little or no time from work, but you’ll need to rest for a couple of days after the vasectomy.

Learn More About Vasectomy

Vasectomy is safe and, because it lasts for life, it is simple and convenient. It will not change your hormones and does not affect your ability to get and stay erect (phew!). Your ejaculate will look just like it always has.

If you want to enjoy sex without causing pregnancy or don't want to have a child biologically in the future, or if other birth control methods are unacceptable, vasectomy may be for you.
