Bioethical assessment of vasectomy without children: personal autonomy against maleficence
Authors: Miguel Téllez Martínez-Fornés, José Carlos Abellán Salort, María Concepción Fouz López

Vasectomy is usually requested by a couple with children who consider that they have completed their family project. In the clinical practice of the urology office of the Spanish health system, the professional must respond to an increasingly frequent demand: the request for vasectomy in young and childless patients, which raises many doubts in the urologist, regarding the suitability of its realization. Vasectomy causes a supposedly irreversible loss of reproductive function. Performed at the request of healthy, young, childless men, while respecting their autonomy of decision, it can nevertheless be maleficent. This paper aims to provide bioethical arguments concerning the performance of voluntary vasectomy in these cases and to evaluate the basis of the ethical criteria usually invoked to justify it. Subsequently, the legal aspects of vasectomy in Spain and the role of the professional’s conscientious objection are analyzed.

Climate change crisis is a global concern for the humanity and for achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). One of the solutions proposed is family planning which plays a dual role. Firstly, family planning must ensure gender equality (SDG 5) and good health (SDG 3) that “strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to climate-related hazards and natural disasters in all countries” (SDG 13.1). Secondly, it would make it possible to contribute to the reduction in population growth, which will turn lead to a reduction in the levels of greenhouse gas emissions. This article analyzes this dual role to determine whether family planning could be an ethical solution for climate change and for contributing to sustainable development for a better future of humanity.
