The vasectomy procedure provides almost zero risk of possible pregnancy
What can a vasectomy do for me?
The vasectomy procedure creates a permanent method of contraception by closing the sperm-carrying tubes, removing any chance of pregnancy. This procedure is performed quickly (in under 30 minutes), and it does not require a general anaesthetic.
When it comes to having a vasectomy, Western Australian men can trust Vasectomy Australia. Our vasectomy pricing is very affordable, and the easy consultation process means you can have your consultation via our clinic, or over the phone, making the process as easy and as painless as possible. Online bookings are also available and if you are outside of North Perth, Vasectomy Australia has a range of vasectomy clinic locations around Australia including Rockingham and central Perth.
Dr Marcel Kalau is an experienced and skilled vasectomy surgeon who has performed over 2000 vasectomies. He prides himself in his meticulous surgical technique and his caring and genuine interactions with his patients.
Whilst a vasectomy is a relatively quick procedure, it does involve technical skill to avoid complications and failures, which is why choosing an experienced vasectomy surgeon such as Dr Kalau is very important. Having a vasectomy is a big decision, and often the first surgical procedure a lot of men have. Dr Kalau and his nursing team always ensure that their patients are well informed and confident with their decision, and that the procedure and aftercare is as comfortable as possible.

Our vasectomy procedure will take about 15-20 minutes.
Yes, we recommend that you read our “Preparing for your Vasectomy” page for all of the information you need to ensure you are ready for this life-changing procedure. Our team is always on hand to answer any questions that you may have to ensure that you are completely comfortable with this procedure.
Vasectomies can be reversed, however the reversal is an expensive process that does not always yield the results that you desire. If you enter this procedure thinking that you may have a means of reversing it later, you may want to re-consider your options of this otherwise permanent contraception method, as it will help ensure that you are definitely ready to undergo it. Reversals are not covered by Medicare and can often cost upwards of $5000.
It is our recommendation that you have someone drive you home by private vehicle or cab / Uber. Public transport is also acceptable.
If this is not possible it's important you wait at least 20 minutes after leaving the procedure room, and feel 100% fine, before you commence driving. If you feel lightheaded while driving, pull over immediately.
Our surgeon's experience means a reduced rate of complication, but all surgical procedures carry an element of risk. Your consent form will detail all of the relevant risks, the most prominent of which can be:
- Bruising that will usually disappear after about a week
- Mild pain and swelling that will decrease a few days after your procedure.
A less common complication can include a large bruise within the scrotum, however you can reduce your chances of this by avoiding any lifting of heavy objects in the days after your procedure. If this is necessary for the type of work you do, you will require some time off work.
It is very important to note that the vasectomy procedure does not work immediately. You must continue to use other forms of contraception and consider yourself fertile until our team has confirmed to you that your procedure is successful and you are no longer at risk.
This confirmation will involve a semen analysis at the three-month mark to confirm that you are sterile. The reason for this is that it is possible for some remaining semen to exist within the tubes post procedure; which will require time for your body to "clean out the pipes" to confirm the risk of pregnancy is nil.
The answer to this question really depends on the type of work you do. If your work involves manual labour, it is vital that you do not lift anything heavy for the first week.
If, on the other hand, you work in an office, you can often go straight back to work. A medical certificate can be provided by our team if you require one to stay home longer.
In most cases it is fine to resume sexual activity after about one week. This can differ based on your individual healing ability, so we recommend taking it slow, and it is vitally important to remember to continue other forms of contraception until we have given you the all-clear.
Once you have had your vasectomy and paid for it, we will process your Medicare rebate on your behalf. You will usually receive your payment into the bank account you have nominated with Medicare within 48 hours. If you have not received the payment 1 week after your vasectomy please email info@vasectomyaustralia.com.au and we will chase it up.

To answer this question there is some good news and bad news.
The bad news: you won't be able to use your private health insurance when you have a vasectomy with us.
That's because we do our vasectomies in medical centres rather than in a private hospital. Private health insurance is only of benefit when you have your procedure performed in a hospital or day surgery by a urologist.
So what's the good news?
The good news is that it will almost certainly work out more affordable to have your procedure with Vasectomy Australia.
This is because of a few reasons:
- Private Health usually requires you pay an excess. This excess might be $500 or even up to $1000. A vasectomy with us is only $573 out of pocket.
- Your urologist will almost certainly have a gap on their fee. This will vary but again could range from a few hundred dollars to over $1000.
- Nearly all surgeons will want you to be asleep when you have your vasectomy. This means an anaesthetic fee and - you guessed it - a gap fee.
Once you add up these 3 fees you may end up being $2000 or more out of pocket. With insurance!
When you choose Vasectomy Australia you know exactly what your fee will be - $573 out of pocket. No if, ands or maybes. No "it depends on your health fund". No "you will have to check with the anaesthetist".
Just one fee so you can know exactly what you will pay and can plan for this. Privately insured or not, you will be getting your procedure with one of Australia's top vasectomists at an affordable price.
