laws or age limits for vasectomy?   Message List

Re: [malecontraceptives] laws or age limits for vasectomy?

Joel, I checked the statutes and there does not seem to be a legal age limit on
vasectomy in Michigan or the U.S. besides being a legal adult. Also, age and
number of living children are not medical reasons to restrict access to
vasectomy according to WHO Medical Eligibility Criteria. However, in the U.S. it
seems most doctors and insurance companies will not consider you unless you are
at least 21. I checked with the General Manager of Vascenter, which provides
vasectomies in North Carolina, and he said that age and number of children
requirements depend largely on the individual urologists perfoming the
procedure. Basically, if you want a vasectomy, you will have to find a
urologist willing to perform the operation and then go through a counselling
session.

Good luck,
Eddie
