How much does male sterilization cost

The cost of male ligation is usually between $500 and $2,000, and the exact cost cannot be generalized and is subject to the local hospital’s charges. At present, the more common clinical male ligation surgery is vasectomy, which is mainly through the ligation and removal of a small section of the vas deferens, so that the male active sperm can not be discharged out of the body to achieve the purpose of birth control. This surgery is mainly suitable for men who are married and have no more plans to have children, as well as patients who suffer from enlarged prostate and are treated by prostatectomy to avoid postoperative complications of epididymitis. The cost is usually around 500~1000 RMB, most of which is the cost of anesthesia during the surgery. However, the specific cost of surgery can not be generalized, the economic level of the region where the man is located, the level of surgery hospital and other factors, will have an impact on the cost of surgery. If the economic level of the region where the man is located is more developed, or the hospital he chooses for the surgery is of a higher grade, the doctor’s level is stronger, and the surgical equipment is more advanced, it may lead to a higher cost of the surgery, and vice versa, it may be relatively cheaper. Meanwhile, if the patient suffers from postoperative infections, the cost of anti-infective drugs will also be calculated in the cost of the surgery, leading to an increase in the cost. It is recommended that men with ligation needs go to the male department of a local regular hospital for consultation, take the actual charges of the local hospital as the standard, and determine the need for surgery and communicate with the doctor to arrange for a specific surgery time.
