How Vasectomy Compares to other Forms of Birth Control?

Vasectomies are an increasingly popular form of birth control for men. Today, it’s an option for many people of varying ages and from varying backgrounds. A vasectomy is a minimally invasive procedure that offers a more permanent and less stressful solution. Learn how a vasectomy compares to other forms of conventional birth control, along with other important information.

Less Risk of Failure of Health Concerns

Comparing vasectomies to other traditional birth control options like condoms or oral contraceptives, have a much lower chance of failure. This applies to the risk of pregnancy and not the additional risk of contracting STDs. A vasectomy does not offer any protection from getting a sexually transmitted disease.

It’s important to know how a vasectomy compares to other forms of conventional birth control, such as the birth control pill or tubal ligation, which comes with health risks as well. Risks can include headaches, nausea, dizziness, breast pain, irregular periods, blood clots, and risk of ovarian cancer.

Longer-Lasting

Having a vasectomy is a longer-lasting method of birth control. The procedure is quick and painless, and you only have to worry about it once during your lifetime.

The other option is relying on other, slightly more unreliable forms of birth control for you and your partner. Some forms of birth control can feel a lot like playing Russian roulette with fertility for the rest of your life.

Reassurance

For men who are sexually active but have their minds set on not having children, a vasectomy is reassuring. The responsibility for safe sex becomes something that’s for both sexes to consider instead of just one.

Thousands of different birth control methods give the promise to prevent pregnancy. Few of them are as effective, long term, as having a vasectomy. A vasectomy eliminates the need for many other forms of birth control.

How Much Does A Vasectomy Cost?

How much a vasectomy cost depends on each individual. Every person’s insurance plan has different coverage. Most insurance companies cover the procedure, and your vasectomy may not cost you any money out of pocket.

Before you have this form of birth control procedure scheduled, our billing department will be able to tell you the true cost.

What Are The Risks And Complications Of A Vasectomy?

Vasectomies are generally safe but do carry some risks. Your doctor will explain in detail during an appointment before the procedure.  Side effects can include:

  • Risk of hematoma or swelling around the testicles for about 48 hours
  • Superficial infection
  • Slight risk of a syndrome called chronic scrotal pain, which is treatable.
  • There is a 0.0005 % chance of recanalization of the vas deferens after the procedure

How Successful Is A Vasectomy Reversal?

A vasectomy reversal can be accomplished, however, the longer the time frame after the initial vasectomy, success rate decreases.

Reversal success rates are 75% for patients 5 years or less removed from their vasectomy. That rate drops to approximately 40-50 % at 8 years and to 30% or less after 10 or more years.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, or BPH, is a condition in which the prostate enlarges as men get older. BPH is a very common condition that affects over 40 million Americans and over 500 million aging men worldwide. Over 40% of men in their 50s and over 70% of men in their 60s have BPH1.  While BPH is a benign condition and unrelated to prostate cancer, it can greatly affect a man’s quality of life.

About BPH

As the prostate enlarges, it presses on and blocks the urethra, causing bothersome urinary symptoms such as:

  • Frequent need to urinate both day and night
  • Weak or slow urinary stream
  • A sense that you cannot completely empty your bladder
  • Difficulty or delay in starting urination
  • Urgent feeling of needing to urinate
  • A urinary stream that stops and starts

If you suffer from the above symptoms, you are not alone. BPH is the leading reason men visit a urologist.

You can measure the severity of your BPH symptoms by taking the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) questionnaire.

The UroLift® System Treatment

What is the UroLift System?

Treatment with the UroLift® System uses a minimally invasive approach that provides rapid relief and recovery of BPH symptoms.1 It is an earlier treatment option can get men off BPH medications and avoid major surgery. The goal of the UroLift System treatment is to relieve symptoms so you can get back to your life and resume your daily activities.

The UroLift® System treatment has demonstrated a significant improvement in quality of life for patients compared to medications.2,3 The UroLift® System is the only BPH procedure shown not to cause new and lasting erectile or ejaculatory dysfunction*, while being a safe and effective treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms due to BPH.1,3-6

How Does The UroLift® System Work?

The UroLift® System uses a revolutionary approach to treating BPH that lifts and holds the enlarged prostate tissue so it no longer blocks the urethra. It is the only available BPH treatment performed by a urologist that does not require heating, cutting, or removal of the prostate tissue. The procedure is typically performed using local anesthesia in a physician’s office or ambulatory surgery center. Patients typically return home the same day without a catheter.1

 Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a good candidate for the UroLift® System treatment?

You may be a good candidate if you are a male, 45 years of age or older, and have symptoms relating to BPH. Speak with your urologist to see if the UroLift® System treatment is right for you. If you have a known allergy to nickel, titanium or stainless steel, talk to your doctor about your allergy before getting a UroLift System treatment.

What should I expect during the treatment? Is it painful? How long does it take?

If you and your doctor decide that the UroLift® System treatment is right for you, your doctor will provide you with more detailed information relating to the treatment. In general, the UroLift System is a minimally invasive treatment that entails minimal downtime. Your doctor will use the UroLift Delivery Device to deploy permanent implants to relieve obstruction caused by the enlarged prostate that is pressing on your urethra. The procedure, which usually takes less than an hour, may be performed under local or general anesthesia and you may be given medication to feel comfortable during the treatment. This typically helps minimize discomfort during the procedure, though everyone’s definition for pain and discomfort varies greatly. Typically, no catheter and no overnight stay is required post-treatment1.

What happens post-treatment, during the recovery period? Are meds required?

After the treatment, patients typically go home the same day without a catheter. There is minimal downtime post-treatment and many patients experience symptom relief in as early as 2 weeks. Patients may experience some urinary discomfort during the recovery period. Most common side effects are mild to moderate and include pain or burning with urination, blood in the urine, pelvic pain, urgent need to urinate.

Does the treatment affect my sexual function?

Clinical studies have shown the UroLift® System treatment does not cause new, sustained instances of erectile or ejaculatory dysfunction1. The same cannot always be said of other BPH therapies such as TURP, laser, and even medication.

Does my insurance cover the treatment?

The UroLift® System treatment is covered by Medicare and many private insurers. Contact your insurance provider for your specific coverage information.

Understanding the colors of pee can provide valuable insights into your overall health. From hydration levels to potential medical conditions, the color of your urine often acts as a natural health indicator. This guide explains what different pee colors mean, when to see a doctor, and how factors like diet, hydration, and medication play a role.

Urine Color Meaning

The color of your pee can reflect various health conditions or lifestyle factors. If you notice persistent changes in the frequency or shade of your urine, it’s a good idea to consult a doctor. Here are urine color meanings and what they could indicate.

Completely Clear Urine 

If your urine is completely clear, it can mean that you’re drinking too much water. Basically putting too much pressure on your kidneys to filter through all of the water. Remember that water toxicity from drinking too much water is possible, but very rare.

Light Yellow Urine (Normal Urine Color)

Ideally, your urine should be light yellow or the color of straw. This indicates that your kidneys are functioning properly, effectively filtering waste and maintaining a healthy balance of fluids. A pale yellow color also suggests that your diet is as close to healthy as it can be.

Dark Yellow to Orange Urine 

Darker yellow urine or tea-colored urine can be a sign of dehydration, indicating that your kidneys are working too hard to process excess toxins. In some cases, vitamins, such as A and B-12, can turn urine orange or yellow-orange. If you notice persistent dark yellow or tea-colored urine, it’s important to see your doctor and adapt your diet accordingly to support kidney health.

Dark Brown Urine

Dark brown urine can sometimes be a sign of medication causing it, or a sign that you are severely dehydrated. Antibiotics are the most common cause of dark brown color in urine. See your doctor if it’s a recurring symptom, as dark brown urine can be a sign of liver disease.

Pink or Red Urine 

Eating large amounts of food with red color such as fava beans, beets, blackberries, and rhubarb can turn your urine red or pink, or it can be some type of medication that causes discoloration. Red or pink urine might also refer to an infection such as a urinary tract infection (UTI). This unusual urine color can also refer to the presence of blood in the urine, however slight, and means that you should make an appointment with your doctor sooner rather than later.

 Black Urine

Black-colored urine is rare, but can sometimes be caused by:

  • certain dyes
  • medications
  • particularly iron injections

Seeing black pee color can also indicate a very severe infection, as can green or purple urine. If you have black urine, call your doctor immediately.

Blue or Green Urine

Although blue or green urine is rare, it is most often connected with food dye (methylene blue) and medications. Medications that can cause this abnormal urine color include:

  • Cimetidine (Tagamet)
  • Amitriptyline
  • Indomethacin (Indocin)
  • Promethazine (Phenergan)
  • Vitamin B Supplements

Other causes of blue or green urine include medical procedures and medical conditions. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a bacterial infection, as well as dyes used in medical tests performed on your kidneys or bladder, can turn your urine blue or green.

Foamy, Fizzy, or Cloudy Urine 

If you have excessive bubbles or cloudy urine, this may suggest protein in the urine. Contact a urologist immediately, as this may be an early sign of kidney disease. A urology specialist will perform a urinalysis to check for protein in the urine sample. Other serious health conditions that accompany cloudy urine with foam or bubbles include Crohn’s Disease and diverticulitis.

Urine Color Chart

Visualizing the different colors of pee can help you understand your health better. Use a urine color chart to compare shades and identify potential concerns, such as dehydration or medical conditions.

When to See a Doctor

Changes in urine color can sometimes indicate underlying health issues that require medical attention. While some variations in urine color are normal and may be related to diet or hydration, certain changes may signal a more serious problem. Here are some situations in which it’s advisable to consult a doctor:

  • Persistent dark urine: If urine consistently appears dark yellow, amber, or brown, it may indicate dehydration, liver problems, or other medical conditions.
  • Blood in the urine: The presence of pink, red, or brownish urine may indicate the presence of blood, which could be a sign of urinary tract infections, kidney stones, bladder cancer, or other urinary tract issues.
  • Unexplained changes: If urine color changes cannot be attributed to diet, hydration, or medication, or if unusual colors persist, it’s important to seek medical advice.
  • Pain or discomfort: If changes in urine color are accompanied by pain, burning sensation during urination, frequent urination, or other symptoms, it’s essential to see a doctor promptly.

Diagnostic Tests

When changes in urine color raise concerns, healthcare providers may order various diagnostic tests to identify the underlying cause. These tests may include:

Urinalysis

A urinalysis involves analyzing a urine sample to detect abnormalities such as blood, protein, bacteria, or crystals. It can provide valuable information about kidney function, urinary tract infections, and other health issues.

Blood tests

Blood tests may be conducted to assess kidney function, liver function, and overall health. Abnormalities in blood chemistry may provide clues to underlying conditions affecting urine color.

Imaging studies

In some cases, healthcare providers may recommend imaging tests such as ultrasound, CT scans, or MRI scans to evaluate the urinary tract for abnormalities such as kidney stones, tumors, or structural abnormalities.

Additional urine tests

Depending on the suspected cause of the changes in urine color, additional urine tests may be ordered, such as urine culture to identify bacterial infections or urine cytology to detect abnormal cells indicative of cancer.

FAQ

What Color Is Urine When Your Kidneys Are Failing?

The color of your urine can provide many clues about your body’s health, including potential kidney failure or signs of kidney disease. When your kidneys are failing, a high concentration and accumulation of substances lead to brown, red, or purple urine. Studies suggest that the urine color is due to abnormal protein or sugar, as well as high numbers of cellular casts, and red and white blood cells.

  • Brown Urine: Urine may appear dark brown in color in kidney failure due to the buildup of waste products. This dark color can be associated with significant kidney dysfunction where waste products like bilirubin and myoglobin are present in higher concentrations.
  • Red or Pink Urine: The presence of blood in urine (hematuria) can cause a red or pink tint. This can be due to various kidney conditions including glomerulonephritis or kidney stones.
  • Purple Urine: Although rare, purple urine can occur in individuals with a urinary catheter and is typically a result of a urinary tract infection in combination with certain bacteria that produce indigo and indirubin pigments.
  • Foamy or Fizzy Urine: Is your urine foamy or fizzy? This can also be a sign of kidney failure. Foamy urine is a sign of increased protein in the urine (proteinuria) and indicates a diminishing ability of the kidney to filter and clean the blood. Persistent foamy urine should prompt a visit to a healthcare provider.

Recognizing Kidney Failure Symptoms

In addition to changes in urine color, other symptoms of kidney failure can include:

  • Fatigue: A decrease in kidney function can cause toxins and impurities to build up in the blood, leading to fatigue.
  • Swelling (Edema): Swelling in the legs, ankles, or feet due to fluid retention.
  • Shortness of Breath: Fluid buildup in the lungs can cause difficulty breathing.
  • Nausea and Vomiting: Accumulation of waste products in the blood can lead to gastrointestinal symptoms.

Is It Normal to Have Dark Urine During Pregnancy?

Although staying hydrated is important for everyone, it is even more so important for women who are pregnant to drink more water than they did pre-pregnancy. Women who are pregnant need more water to form amniotic fluid, build new tissue, help indigestion, carry nutrients, produce extra blood volume and flush out wastes and toxins.

While dark urine during pregnancy is typically nothing you should have to worry about, it is still something you should mention at your next doctor’s visit. To clear up dark urine during pregnancy, we recommend drinking 10 or more glasses of water per day.

If you are experiencing burning or pain in conjunction with darker urine, this could be a sign of a urinary tract infection (UTI). If left untreated, a UTI can lead to kidney infection and can have serious consequences during pregnancy. Therefore, you will want to seek immediate treatment if you suspect you have a UTI to avoid further risks and complications.

Why is pee yellow?

Yellow urine gets its color from a pigment called urochrome, a byproduct of your body breaking down hemoglobin from old red blood cells. The more water you drink, the more diluted this pigment becomes — which is why well-hydrated urine appears pale yellow, while darker yellow urine can indicate dehydration. Urochrome is always present in your urine, but its concentration depends on your hydration level.

Can certain foods change urine color?

Yes, various foods can alter urine color due to natural pigments or added dyes. For instance, beets, blackberries, and rhubarb can cause a reddish or pink hue—a harmless condition known as beeturia. Carrots may impart an orange tint, while asparagus can lead to a greenish shade and a distinct odor. Additionally, foods with artificial dyes, such as colorful cereals or energy drinks, can result in blue or green urine. ​

Is dark urine in the morning normal?

Yes, it’s common for urine to appear darker in the morning due to overnight dehydration, leading to more concentrated urine. This typically resolves after hydrating during the day. However, if dark urine persists despite adequate fluid intake, it may indicate underlying health issues, and consulting a healthcare provider is advisable.

Does medication always affect urine color?

Yes, it’s common for urine to appear darker in the morning due to overnight dehydration, leading to more concentrated urine. This typically resolves after hydrating during the day. However, if dark urine persists despite adequate fluid intake, it may indicate underlying health issues, and consulting a healthcare provider is advisable.

The “pelvic floor” describes the muscular network that forms across the opening of the female pelvis. The pelvic floor muscles help to keep the organs in this part of the body in place. If these muscles have a defect from straining, childbirth or aging, they may induce a “dropped bladder,” also known as a pelvic organ prolapse.

What to Know About a Dropped Bladder

Symptoms of Dropped Bladder

Pelvic organ prolapse comes with various subtle signs you might miss in the early stages of the condition. Symptoms of a dropped bladder include:

  • Urinary incontinence and difficulty urinating.
  • Pain or discomfort in the pelvic region.
  • Painful intercourse.
  • Lower back pain.
  • Frequent bladder infections.

Causes of Dropped Bladder

The primary factor causing a dropped bladder is a loss of strength in the pelvic floor muscles. Think of the pelvic floor as a hammock that supports all the pelvic organs. When the muscles weaken, they lose the ability to contain the organs, resulting in a dropped bladder.

Causes of a dropped bladder

  • Vaginal birth stretched the pelvic floor muscles.
  • Menopause – causing a loss in the production of estrogen which strengthens the pelvic floor muscles.
  • Lifting heavy objects improperly.
  • Strain during bowel movements.

Diagnosing Dropped Bladder

If you’re experiencing any of the symptoms mentioned above, it’s best to book a consultation with your physician immediately. Your doctor will take your medical history and conduct a physical examination of your pelvis.

Your doctor may order other tests that include:

  • Cystoscopy – The doctor uses an instrument to search your urethra for urinary tract abnormalities.
  • Cystogram – The doctor injects you with a dye that they then trace through your system and monitor using a series of x-rays.
  • Urodynamic testing – Measures the pressure in your bladder to determine urinary sphincter health and the strength of your bladder.

Treatment for Dropped Bladder

Should your physician diagnose you with mild pelvic organ prolapse, they may recommend lifestyle changes to your diet and exercise habits, as well as a series of exercises to strengthen the pelvic muscles.

Severe cases of the condition require a more aggressive approach and may include a pessary inserted into the vagina to provide bladder support. Your doctor may recommend estrogen therapy as well. In the most severe cases, you may require surgery to correct the prolapsed bladder and rebuild the pelvic floor muscles.

Wrapping Up – Reach Out

Many women suffering from a dropped bladder refuse to visit a physician out of fear. It’s important to realize this is a treatable condition. If you refuse diagnosis and treatment, you may end up with the situation leading to the development of other diseases and disorders within the body.

Vasectomy Omaha Cost

Vasectomy is one of the most popular methods of contraception in the United States. Over 500,000 vasectomy procedures are performed each year. Vasectomy along with tubal ligation (in females), is the most effective means of preventing pregnancy.

However, the vasectomy method of birth control is about:

  • ¼ the tubal ligation
  • fewer risks
  • fewer side effects
  • does not require general anesthetic

A vasectomy is an outpatient procedure and takes approximately 30 minutes.

How much does a vasectomy cost in Omaha, Nebraska?

The cost of a vasectomy depends on each individual, as every person’s health insurance plan is different. The cost of vasectomy in Omaha, NE can vary, and factors like your deductible and expenses throughout the year may mean that your vasectomy procedure cost ends up requiring little to no out-of-pocket expense. Some patients find that their vasectomy cost requires little to no payment depending on their insurance coverage.

To provide clarity, our billing department can inform you of the average cost of a vasectomy in Omaha and let you know the true cost before you schedule this form of birth control procedure. Patients can also inquire about other urological procedures offered at our Omaha clinic, including treatments for prostate issues and other men’s health concerns.

Vasectomy Risks and Complications

A vasectomy is performed with minimal risks, which your doctor will explain during a pre-procedure appointment. There is a 1-2% risk of hematoma or swelling around the testicles. Also a 1-2% risk of superficial infection. And a 1-2% risk of a syndrome called chronic scrotal pain which is treatable. There is a 0.0005% chance of recanalization of the vas deferens after the procedure. Board-certified urologists at our Omaha clinic provide comprehensive follow-up care to address any concerns.

How effective is the vasectomy procedure?

After a vasectomy procedure at our Omaha office, live sperm may still be present in the male reproductive system. A semen analysis is done 8-16 weeks after the procedure, following at least 20-30 ejaculations to analyze if live sperm are still visible.

On average, it takes three months to confirm vasectomy success. Approximately 1 in 2000 men, even with no sperm detected, may still experience recanalization, where sperm returns. While the risk is small, it is still possible. However, this risk is lower than with any other form of sterilization.

How much pain do people experience after a vasectomy?

Vasectomy procedures cause minimal discomfort, usually managed with local anesthesia. Most patients report minor soreness and swelling that lasts a few days.

We advise avoiding strenuous activity, exercise, or ejaculation for one week to minimize pain. Ice packs and scrotal support help manage any discomfort. About 1-2 % of patients may develop chronic scrotal pain syndrome, often described as a dull ache in the testicle. If this occurs, requiring further consultation with a urology specialist in Omaha.

What is a minimally invasive vasectomy procedure?

Ask your doctor how they perform the procedure. The most common and current method involves a local anesthetic and a small puncture in the skin.   This is in place of using a knife or making a large incision.

How will this affect the patient after their vasectomy procedure?

There are some common rumors and misconceptions about vasectomy.  There are no risks of future diseases or cancers in men who undergo a vasectomy.

No effect on the ability to have:

  • erections
  • sex drive
  • ability to have orgasms

Less than 10 % of ejaculate volume is from sperm, the rest is from prostatic secretions, and there is no appreciable difference in ejaculation volume after the procedure.

Vasectomy vs. Other Forms of Birth Control?

Vasectomies are an increasingly popular form of birth control for men, and the days when you had to be married with kids to have a vasectomy are long gone. Today, vasectomy procedures are an option for many people of varying ages and from varying backgrounds just because they offer a more permanent and less stressful solution to conventional forms of birth control. Patients interested in additional urological services can consult with a board-certified urologist to discuss prostate health, bladder control, and other men’s health concerns.

Click here for more information.

How successful is a vasectomy reversal?

A vasectomy reversal can be accomplished, but the longer the time frame after the initial vasectomy, the lower the chances of success.  Reversal success rates are 75% for patients 5 years or less removed from their vasectomy. That rate drops to approximately 40-50 % at 8 years, and to 30% or less after 10 or more years.
