How much does sterilization cost for men?

Wondering what a vasectomy costs? Then you've come to the right place. We'll be happy to explain it to you clearly.

What is male sterilization?

A vasectomy is a small procedure that involves cutting the vas deferens. As a result, the sperm no longer contains sperm cells and fertilization is no longer possible. The body continues to produce sperm cells, but these are absorbed naturally. Ejaculation looks the same and sex does not change - you hardly notice it in practice.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. The only sting you feel is the anaesthetic itself. After that, you will feel that the doctor is busy, but no pain.

At De Herenkliniek, experienced urologists and doctors perform this procedure every day, in our clinics in Hilversum and Rotterdam.

What are the costs of a sterilization man?

A vasectomy at De Herenkliniek costs €539. This amount includes:

• The intake interview
• The procedure itself
• Aftercare and guidance

Please note: the semen analysis that you perform 3 months after the procedure is not included in this rate. Depending on the laboratory you choose, this costs between €50 and €60.

There is no need for a referral from a doctor and there are no hidden costs.

Is a vasectomy reimbursed by the health insurer?

A vasectomy is not covered by the basic insurance in the Netherlands. You pay the costs yourself. Some additional insurances partially reimburse the procedure - it pays to check with your insurer. De Herenkliniek helps you with the necessary documentation for a possible claim.

Will anything change after the procedure?

No. The sexual experience remains completely the same. The procedure only affects the vas deferens - not hormone production, erection, or ejaculation. The only difference is that the semen no longer contains fertile sperm cells.

Three months after the procedure, the semen analysis confirms that the sterilization was successful. Until then, you will continue to use additional contraception.

How reliable is a vasectomy?

A vasectomy is one of the most reliable forms of contraception. Three months after the procedure, there are in principle no more sperm cells in the semen and the chance of pregnancy is almost nil. The follow-up check is precisely intended to officially confirm this before you can fully rely on sterilization.
