Vasectomy is a safer, cheaper procedure that causes fewer complications than tubal ligation in women. Although vasectomy is expensive, it is a one-time cost and is often covered by medical insurance.

The study showed that six pregnancies were reported among 540 women within six weeks to 1.5 years after their husbands had a vasectomy.
