Vasectomy
Vasectomy in Houston, Texas
A vasectomy is an effective and permanent but generally reversible form of male contraception. If you and your partner have made a decision about family planning, this simple procedure means you don't have to think about birth control anymore.
The Y Factor specializes in the no-needle, no-scalpel vasectomy in Houston.
This safe and highly effective technique offers minimal discomfort and a rapid recovery. Once a vasectomy is done and your semen analysis is clear, you and your partner can move forward with confidence without risk of an unexpected pregnancy.
What Is a No-Scalpel Vasectomy?
A vasectomy permanently prevents sperm from leaving your body and causing pregnancy. The procedure works by blocking the vas deferens, small tubes in the scrotum that carry sperm.
At The Y Factor, we use the no-scalpel, no-needle method of performing a vasectomy. While traditional techniques use a needle to numb the area and a small incision to access the vas deferens, we offer a safer, modern and more effective approach.
Before the outpatient procedure, a local anesthetic is administered through a vapor spray into the skin. We then use a specialized instrument requiring no incision, for minimal discomfort and bruising.
After your vasectomy, you should be able to return to work 24 to 36 hours, and a few weeks later, we'll test your semen to verify there's no sperm. We encourage you to continue with an alternative form of birth control until you get the clear.
Vasectomies don't impact sexual function or libido, and they don't affect having an orgasm or ejaculation. It simply removes sperm from the equation.

What our patients says
I came into get a vasectomy not knowing what to expect. The whole procedure took 15 minutes with little to no pain. Dr talked to me through the whole process to ease my mind from what was going on. Would highly recommend the Y Factor for your place to get your vasectomy.
My wife and I had been trying for a baby for over 3 years before finding this place. They had diagnosed me with male infertility within 2 weeks and immediately started me on treatments to boost my testosterone levels. The next month, my wife was pregnant! We will forever be grateful for giving us the chance to be parents! When we were ready to try for baby #2, I immediately started treatments again and my wife was pregnant within 2 months!
Very professional and quick service.
I've been coming here for about 4 or 5 years now and the customer service is great. They're good for the guys out there, but by far I want to say that Danielle needs to stand out and be rewarded I heard professionalism, heard energy on the phone and just very friendly and makes you feel at home.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I prepare for the vasectomy?
Eat before you come. Bring supportive or tight underwear. Don’t take aspirin the week leading up to the vasectomy. Shave or cut the hairs on the front of the scrotum. Call us for any questions.
What is the process like?
If you want a vasectomy, then call us and we will set your appointment. Most insurances will allow you to have the consult and the procedure on the same day. You do not have to come back after the vasectomy, and we will communicate through your patient portal about the semen analysis result.
When do I do the semen analysis after Vasectomy?
Eight weeks and ten weeks. If you have a conflict, then you can readjust the date. Continue with an alternative form of birth control until you get word from us that your semen analysis is clear.
Do you have a deposit Policy?
The Y Factor’s commitment to care means we want a urologist available to see patients when they need it. In order to minimize no-shows, The Y Factor requires a deposit for special procedures like the no-scalpel vasectomy, Shang Ring Circumcision, and other select procedures. This deposit will be applied to the cost of your urological services or forfeited if you no-show.
*100% of the deposit will be forfeited for no shows or cancellations less than 48 hours prior to the procedure. All cancellations must be via phone call and communication to our office staff. All cancellations or reschedule appointments greater than 48 hours before your procedure qualify for a refund or reapply the deposit to that later date.
