Vasectomy Reversal: Is It For You?
Vasectomy reversal surgery explained.
Like many men, perhaps you're in a position where you have had a vasectomy but
you now want to have children. Did you know that you can get a vasectomy
reversal?
In a nutshell, a vasectomy reversal is a surgical procedure that restores the flow of sperm through the vas deferens.
Success rates at restoring sperm flow vary among clinical trials, but they range
from 50% to 97% with the chances of successful childbirth following the surgery
at around 50%.
While success isn't guaranteed, steady advances in microsurgery continue to
increase the odds of success.
There are several factors that help determine your own odds for success, one of
the most important being the length of time that has elapsed since you had your
vasectomy.
If a vasectomy reversal interests you, discuss it with your family doctor.
He/she can inform you about recent advancements, the risks involved, how much it
costs, and answer any questions you might have.
