Paper published in Journal of Sexual Medicine analyzing the relationship between vasectomy and sexual frequency.
Men who consider having a vasectomy as a form of contraception may be anxious about their future sexual potency. As a result, couples end up opting for other, less effective forms of contraception.
This study tries to find out if there is a relationship between having a vasectomy and the number of times the couple has had sexual intercourse after the procedure.
351 men who had undergone vasectomy were analyzed. The results showed that the number of sexual acts performed by couples after vasectomy was higher than in couples where the man had not had a vasectomy.
The conclusion is that vasectomy makes couples have more sex.
