Vasectomy is a minor operation that is usually done at a doctor's office or at a clinic. You are awake during the surgery, which usually takes no more than 30 minutes. First, the hair is clipped from the scrotum. The doctor injects a local anesthetic into the skin of your scrotum to numb it. Then the doctor makes one or two small cuts in the skin of the scrotum through which the tubes are gently lifted out. The doctor cuts the tubes, and may remove a small piece of each. The cut ends are tied or sealed with electric current. The openings in the scrotum are closed with small stitches. After a short rest (usually half an hour) you can go home.Sperm are made in a man's testes. During a man's ejaculation the sperm travel through two tubes (vasa deferentia), mix with semen, and come out of the penis. If the sperm enter a woman and one of the sperm joins an egg, the woman will become pregnant. During a vasectomy, these two tubes are cut and blocked so the sperm cannot mix with the semen. Without sperm in his semen, a man can no longer make his partner pregnant.
After a vasectomy, a man still has erections and ejaculates. The amount of fluid in his ejaculations is not different, except there is no sperm. The fluid looks and smells the same. A man's hormones, beard, and voice do not change. His sex drive and ability to have sex do not change. The only change is that he cannot make a woman pregnant.

vasectomy is when you have the tube that transport the sperm to the penis for ejaculation being cut and then tied up. this will prevent the sperm from being transported to the penis thus causing infertility . you can look at this website link for more information.

actually there are two vas deferens - one for each testicle
they make a small incision in the scrotum, tie off both ends of these tubes and cut them
there may be some residual sperm in the seminal fluid so they test after about a month
and yes it produces permanent loss of sprem in the smeinal fluid hence loss of fertility

They are close. The surgeon doesn't cut veins. They cut the vas dferens which is the tube that transports sperm so that during ejaculation anly seminal fluid without sperm comes out. Thus no sperm,,,, no kids

It is when a surgeon cuts the vein leading from your testicales to you'r urethra(the tube where you'r pee comes out)therefore the sperm never leaves the body
