A vasectomy is getting clipped... a Hysterectomy is getting some of the female reproductive organs removed or destroyed.. like a cut and burn.. the closest thing to that for males would be castration. I don't recommend it.Health Question & Answer
A complete hysterectomy (removal of the uterus and the ovaries) would be like removing the prostate gland and the testicles (prostectomy and castration). Just the removal of the uterus (hysterectomy) would be like removing the prostate gland.Health Question & Answer
