The Cooper Clinic technique in Pukekohe
Utilising cutting-edge no-scalpel vasectomy, The Cooper Clinic offers a modern solution for patients in Pukekohe. We begin by numbing the scrotum with a local anaesthetic, then make a small puncture with our electrosurgical device, through which the vas deferens are accessed. The tubes are then cut and the cut ends are sealed before the small punctures on your testicles are closed. This technique minimises invasiveness, leading to quicker healing, less discomfort, and fewer complications post-procedure.

Is A Vasectomy The Right Choice?
Carefully weigh the decision to undergo a vasectomy with your partner, as reversals aren’t always successful. Vasectomy may be suitable if:
- You and your partner feel your family is complete
- You’re seeking a secure and lasting birth control method
- Other methods like hormonal contraception or condoms are not suitable for you or your partner
For guidance on whether a vasectomy is the right choice for you, please reach out to us.

1. Pre-procedure
- Avoid taking NSAIDs like Ibuprofen on the day before and the day of your vasectomy
- Abstain from alcohol consumption the day before

Frequently Asked Questions
What age can you get a vasectomy in NZ?
In New Zealand, there is no fixed legal age requirement for a vasectomy. However, it is typically recommended for adult men who are certain they do not want any or more children. We also often hear, is a vasectomy reversible? The short answer is yes, however, it is not always successful. So when recommending this procedure we would take into consideration your age and your family planning goals.
What are the possible complications of a vasectomy?
Vasectomy is generally a safe procedure, but like any surgery, it can have potential complications. These may include:
- Minor pain, bruising, or swelling at the surgery site
- Infection
- Sperm granulomas
- Post-vasectomy pain syndrome
In rare cases, there may be a failure of the procedure
It’s important to note that research is incomplete but so far there is no strong evidence to support the theory that vasectomies may cause prostate cancer.
What to expect from post-vasectomy sex?
After a vasectomy, most men will not experience any significant changes in their sexual function. This includes maintaining the same level of libido, the ability to have an erection, and sensation during sex. It’s important to note that immediately after a vasectomy, there may still be sperm present in the semen, so another form of contraception should be used until a semen analysis confirms the absence of sperm. However, remember that vasectomies do not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
