ProventisTM Solution
Our Technology
01
Implant is Inserted
Proventis implant is inserted into each of the two vas deferens, using an approach similar to the gold-standard Non-Scalpel Vasectomy (NSV) technique. The procedure is performed by a urologist under local anesthesia in less than 20 minutes.
02
Implant blocks sperm flow
The implant serves as a plug that prevents sperm flow from the testicle to the urethra. The user is able to ejaculate as always, but the ejaculation does not contain sperm. Sperm cells are degraded and naturally absorbed.
03
Implant is opened
Upon user request, the physician opens the implant is a minimally invasive manner, under local anesthesia.
04
Sperm flows through the implant
As the implant becomes unplugged, sperm flow is regained. The ejaculate contains sperm cells, so fertility is restored.
