Can a man recover after having a vasectomy?

For some families who want permanent contraception, sterilization can be said to be the best choice, and female sterilization is safer, more economical, and less harmful to the body than male sterilization. After male sterilization, some people want to restore the effect. Is this possible? I believe many people don't know. Today, let's talk about whether male sterilization can be restored.

Can male vasectomy be repaired?

Theoretically, the ejaculatory duct can be reconnected after a vasectomy, but the actual situation is not so optimistic. Most people cannot restore pregnancy. If the male has been sterilized for a long time, the actual effect is even more uncertain. But you can give it a try. The ejaculatory duct can only be reconnected through surgical treatment. Please consult several hospital clinics to make it clear whether you must have surgery to avoid spending unnecessary money.

After ejaculatory duct sterilization surgery, if there are special circumstances such as the death of children or severe disability or remarriage, ejaculatory duct closure surgery can be performed to reopen the ejaculatory duct. The advent of ejaculatory duct closure surgery was half a century later than vasectomy, and the actual operation is much more complicated than vasectomy. Can male sterilization be repaired? Nowadays, with the technology of microscopic surgery, it is not difficult to reopen the ejaculatory duct. However, even the best surgeons, the most sophisticated operating room instruments, and the best microscopic surgery technology cannot guarantee 100% success in restoration. Although the current rate of anatomical recanalization of the ejaculatory duct exceeds 90%, the recovery rate is only about 50%, which may be related to anti-sperm antibodies.

After ejaculatory duct sterilization surgery, more than half of the men will produce anti-sperm antibodies. This antigen still exists after the removal. Many studies have shown that with the increase of anti-sperm antibody levels, the pregnancy rate of the family decreases. When the antigen level exceeds a certain level, there is no ability to conceive at all. In addition, after the ejaculatory duct is blocked, the pressure in the vas deferens increases, and the quality of sperm decreases with the change of the time of the vasectomy. Can male sterilization be repaired? Generally speaking, the younger the patient is and the shorter the sterilization time, the greater the chance of successful re-fertilization. However, there are also cases where patients who have undergone sterilization surgery for more than 20 years have finally become pregnant after satisfactory surgical treatment.
