Facts And Information About Reverse Vasectomy

By Henry Murphy


Vasectomy reversal refers to the surgery which is used in undoing vasectomies. The procedure is done to reconnect the vas deferens which carry sperms from the testicles. When the procedure is successful, it means there will be sperms within semen and therefore a man will be in a position to make a woman pregnant. The success rates are varied and range between forty to 90 percent. When one is considering reverse vasectomy, they need to be versed with what the procedure involves.

There are different reasons for men to consider reversal of vasectomies. One might have lost a child while for some, it is just because they changed their mind. There are also men who remarry and thus might need to have children again. In a few cases, reversing the procedure is so as to treat persistent pain which is caused by the vasectomy procedure.

Almost all vasectomies can get reversed but that does not in any way guarantee that the process will be fully successful. The longer one takes before going for reversal, the less the chances that it will be a success. There are risks and complications that should be expected, even though rarely. For instance, one might experience scrotal bleeding that leads to blood collecting at that site. That will lead to swellings that are painful. That situation can be avoided when the person has enough rest following surgery.

Infections are rare but a possibility. They happen at the surgery site. For some persons, they experience chronic persistent pain after the procedure is finalized, though that is rare. It is important for one to prepare well for the surgery. In the first place, it should be noted that the procedure is costly and insurance may not pay for it, which is why it is important to understand all costs. In order to ensure the surgery is a success, it is better to use surgeons who have many years specific experience.

Reversing a vasectomy is much more complex than the actual vasectomy process. It should be done by surgeons who have the knowledge and expertise. There are two methods of re-attaching vas deferens. The first one is called vasovasostomy and is where the surgeon sews back the ends that are tied together. The second option is vasoepididymostomy and is where there is direct attachment of vas deferens. The attachment is to a small organ found at the back section of testicles. The method is much more complex than the first.

For the procedure, a doctor will make an incision on the lower end of the scrotum. That exposes the vas deferens and releases it from surrounding tissues. After that, the vas deferens is cut open and the fluid inside examined. If sperms are present in the fluid, the ends are connected to re-establish passageway for sperms. If there is little or no sperm, it means there is scar tissue blocking flow of sperms and the doctor will perform vasoepididymostomy.

Some 6 weeks following the surgical procedure, the semen of the man is examined. The examination is so as to know if the reversal was successful. If the procedure is successful, sperms are supposed to be in semen after some months.

There are some cases in which the procedure does not produce desired outcomes. There is the option of trying it a second time. For others, they tend to consider alternative methods like IVF.
