After your vasectomy, you should ensure you take some time to recover. We recommend that you go straight home and rest for at least 48 hours after your procedure. 

On this page, we explain what you can expect after your vasectomy procedure and how you can support your recovery. We have a 24-hour dedicated aftercare line, where you can talk to one of our nurses about your aftercare and recovery on 0345 122 1441.
