Vasectomy is the most effective permanent form of birth control available to men. In nearly every way that vasectomy can be compared to tubal ligation[57] it has a more positive outlook. Vasectomy is more cost effective, less invasive, has techniques that are emerging that may facilitate easier reversal, and has a much lower risk of post-operative complications. Despite this, in the United States vasectomy is utilized at less than half the rate of the alternative female "tubal ligation".[58] According to the research, vasectomy is least utilized among black and Latino populations, the US groups that have the highest rates of female sterilization.[58]

New Zealand, in contrast to the US, has higher levels of vasectomy than tubal ligation uptake. 18% of all men, and 25% of all married men have had a vasectomy. The age cohort with the highest level of vasectomy was 40-49 where 57% of men had taken it up.[59] Canada, the UK, Bhutan and the Netherlands all have similar levels of uptake.[60]
