A man’s ligation procedure is usually a vasectomy, which usually takes 10 to 30 minutes. Vasectomy is a common clinical male sterilization procedure, which is mainly used for contraceptive purposes by removing a small section of the vas deferens and then re-ligating it, so that the active sperm in the male body can not be discharged out of the body through the vas deferens. The procedure is safer and simpler, usually taking only 10 to 30 minutes to complete, and usually does not cause adverse reactions in men. However, despite the safety of the procedure, it is recommended that patients remain in the hospital for 1 to 2 hours after the procedure to avoid localized pain, bleeding or even infection. For at least 2 weeks after the surgery, men should avoid sexual intercourse and strenuous exercise to prevent rupture of the surgical wound, which may affect the postoperative recovery. At the same time, the surgery is not available to all men. For men who suffer from prostatitis, varicocele, etc., the surgery should be performed after the above mentioned diseases are cured. To sum up, vasectomy does not take a long time to perform. If a man is in good health after medical checkups and has a need for sterilization, he can undergo the procedure under the guidance of his doctor.
