Failure of vasectomy doesnt occur very often.But it usually occurs soon after the surgery.Of course there is a chance,however minimal,that it may happen.
First take a pregnancy test if you miss your period.If its positive,your husband should have a semen analysis.

Vasectomy has a failure rate of only 0.5%. You need to confirm with a Pregnancy test dear. Why stay in doubt. If you detect a pregnancy and want to keep it, it's beautiful. If not, you can easily get it terminated. But make sure first.
