Family planning providers can use the checklists and tables in this report to:

• Counsel clients about vasectomy and ensure that they make an informed choice.

• Identify men with conditions that require a delay or special consideration before they can have a
vasectomy.

• Explain the vasectomy procedure.

• Try to make sure that the client’s decision for vasectomy is well-considered and his own.

• Explain to a man what he should do before and after the vasectomy.
