What does a spermiogram look like after a vasectomy?

Vasectomy describes a blockage of the vas deferens. This prevents sperm from entering the ejaculate. Vasectomy is a safe method of contraception.

However, in order to guarantee the success of the procedure, i.e. safe contraception, spermiograms must be taken. The first spermiogram is performed 4 weeks after the surgery. A second and third check-up is carried out 4 weeks apart. If no live sperm could be detected in the spermiogram, this speaks for the success of the vasectomy.
