Vasectomy
AbstractVasectomy is safer, simpler, less expensive, and equally as effective as female sterilization--yet it remains one of the least known and least used methods of contraception. Worldwide, an estimated 33 million of married women ages 15 to 49 (less than 3%) rely on their partner's vasectomy for contraception.
