Explanation

A "normal vasectomy" is a common surgical procedure for men who want to become permanently sterile, or unable to father children. It involves cutting or blocking two tubes, called the vas deferens, which carry sperm from the testicles to the urethra. The procedure prevents sperm from reaching the semen that is ejaculated from the penis. After a vasectomy, a man can still have erections and ejaculate, but the semen will not contain sperm.
