Big Month For Vasectomies

Based on several articles over the past year, this should be a big month for vasectomies.

Last year, Forbes pointed out that the scheduling of vasectomies jumps dramatically before big sports events – The Masters, Final Four, Football.  Apparently, people want to get “snipped” on the Friday and have a good reason to sit around all weekend and recover while they watch their favorite sport.  Talk about planning.

And, last month, there was an article about the spike in vasectomies due to the economy.  No hard data about why, but the article hypothesizes that people are concerned about the additional costs of children and want to get the procedure done while they have health insurance.
