Vasectomy is a safer, cheaper procedure that causes fewer complications than tubal ligation in women. Although vasectomy is expensive, it is a one-time cost and is often covered by medical insurance. The cost of other methods, such as birth control pills or condoms and spermicide, is likely to be greater over time.

And several urologists not involved with the study said more research is needed to determine if the study findings are truly accurate.
