"Vasectomy: Right for Me?" Decision Support Tool

The goal of this trial is to learn if a web-based decision aid designed to provide evidence-based information about vasectomy and other birth control options helps improve users' decision-making about birth control. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do people who use the decision aid have better knowledge about vasectomy? * Do people who use the decision aid have lower conflict with their decision? Participants will: * Use the decision aid (if they are assigned to the intervention arm). * Answer survey questions about their knowledge, decision-making, interest in vasectomy, and healthcare navigation experiences.

Perioperative Virtual Reality Intervention for Pain and Anxiety During Vasectomies

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a virtual reality (VR) program (TRIPP) can reduce pain, anxiety, and distress in adult men (aged 18+) undergoing a vasectomy under local anesthesia. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does using VR during a vasectomy lower patients' pain during the procedure compared to standard care? * Does VR reduce anxiety and distress compared to standard care? * Are patients more satisfied with their experience when using VR compared to standard care? Researchers will compare two groups: * VR group: Patients will use a VR headset with a guided meditation program (TRIPP) during their vasectomy. * Control group: Patients will receive standard care (no VR). Participants will: * Be randomly assigned to either the VR group or control group. * Complete brief questionnaires before, during, and after the procedure (about 15-20 minutes each time). * (VR group only) Use a VR headset during the procedure and provide optional feedback about the experience. Why is this important? Vasectomies are typically done with local anesthesia (pain relief), but many patients still feel anxiety or discomfort. VR may help distract and relax patients, improving their experience. This study will help health professionals understand if VR could be a useful option for future patients.

A Trial of Self-Adjusted Nitrous Versus Placebo During Office Vasectomy

The goal of this clinical trial is to see if nitrous oxide is safe and effective to use during during vasectomies performed in a clinic/in-office setting. This trial will compare self-administered nitrous oxide versus a placebo (oxygen) during office vasectomy. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Whether self-administered low dose (20-45%) nitrous oxide (SANO) reduces intraoperative anxiety and catastrophizing during office vasectomy. * To examine whether SANO reduces intraoperative pain or alters procedure duration, the rate of adverse events, or urologists' perception of ease and patient tolerance of the procedure. Participants will be asked to complete multiple surveys pre-procedure, intra-procedure, and post-procedure.
