Can I still have children after sterilization surgery?

my country has now opened up the two-child policy, which is a great thing for families with only one child. Some men have to undergo sterilization surgery under the restrictions of family planning, and now want to have children again. So, can they have children again after sterilization surgery?

Male sterilization surgery

Male sterilization surgery involves cutting off the vas deferens that carries sperm from the testicles to the penis, so that the sperm cannot enter the semen and are excreted from the body. Therefore, men cannot have children after sterilization, but if they want to have children, they can have a vasectomy reversal.

In the following cases, you can still have children after vasectomy

1. If other tissues in the spermatic cord are accidentally ligated, but one or both sides of the vas deferens are unobstructed, it is reasonable to get pregnant again.

2. The sperm remaining in the patient's seminal vesicle has not been emptied, and the contraceptive measures are abandoned prematurely. Generally speaking, the remaining live sperm can continue to exist in the male reproductive tract for more than one month after vasectomy, and the retention time of sperm is also related to the number of ejaculations. After 5 to 6 ejaculations, the sperm will disappear.

3. Vas deferens malformation: Occasionally, there are congenital multiple vas deferens. In addition to the normal vas deferens, there is also a vagus duct. Although one vasectomy has been performed, sperm can still pass through the vagus duct and cause reproduction.

4. After a male vasectomy, recanalization surgery is necessary to have children. Vascularization only blocks the ejaculation of sperm, and after recanalization, normal ejaculation of sperm means normal fertility.
