Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Vasectomy is surgery a man may choose to have if he does not want to father any more children. It is lasting (permanent) male birth control. During the surgery, 2 tubes called the vas deferens are cut and sealed. The vas deferens carry sperm from testicles to the urethra.

Detailed explanation-2: -In a vasectomy, the tube that carries sperm from each testicle (vas deferens) is cut and sealed.

Detailed explanation-3: -A vasectomy blocks or cuts each vas deferens tube, keeping sperm out of your semen. Sperm cells stay in your testicles and are absorbed by your body. Starting at least 2 months after a vasectomy, your semen (cum) won’t contain any sperm, so it can’t cause pregnancy.

Detailed explanation-4: -The procedure is performed under local anesthetic and involves a surgeon cutting the vas deferens (the tube that carries sperm from the testicle to the penis) and cauterizing or tying the ends.
