How long does it take for a man to rest after a vasectomy?

Male sterilization is a common contraceptive method. Men will lose their fertility after sterilization, but they need to rest in bed and try to avoid heavy physical labor within two weeks. They should try not to do strenuous exercise, pay more attention to rest, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and ensure a balanced nutrition. It is best not to have sex in a short period of time.

Is it better to rest in bed or walk more after ligation?

The main thing is to rest for at least 2 weeks, avoid strenuous exercise, do not have sex within a month, and do not take a sitz bath! At the same time, you should pay attention to nutrition and eat more foods rich in vitamins and high protein, such as fresh vegetables, fruits, fish, meat, eggs and soy products. Do not eat spicy and other irritating foods, quit smoking, and avoid eating raw, cold and frozen foods or drinks.

Women need to be hospitalized after vasectomy and rest in bed for 6 hours. Pay attention to whether there is bleeding from the incision, dizziness, etc. This requires special attention. And women should eat semi-liquid food for 2 days or normal food after vasectomy. If there is no discomfort, you should get out of bed as soon as possible. This is also something that female friends should pay attention to. In addition, women should pay attention to the use of antibiotics to prevent infection according to the specific situation after surgery; symptomatic treatment when abdominal pain and fever occur. The stitches will be removed in about 5 days. If there is no abnormality, you can be discharged within 1 week. Go to the hospital (service station) for a reexamination once every 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year.

Why does the wife get pregnant after the man has a vasectomy?

Vasectomy is a safe and reliable method of permanent male birth control; however, some wives become pregnant after the man has had a vasectomy, which causes the husband to be suspicious and the wife to feel deeply wronged. So, why does this happen?

This is because:

(1) After the operation, before the sperm completely disappears from the semen, the woman has sexual intercourse and becomes pregnant. Because the sperm remaining in the vas deferens can survive in the body for weeks or even months. Therefore, it usually takes six weeks after the operation to take effect. During this period, other contraceptive measures must still be taken, otherwise the woman can also become pregnant until the semen is examined and sperm is found to be free of sperm.

(2) Surgical errors: The ligament or blood vessels are mistaken for a vasectomy, but the vas deferens remains intact; or the ligature is too loose or the suture is too tight, cutting the vas deferens and causing recanalization of the vas deferens.

(3) Abnormal development of the vas deferens, where multiple vas deferens exist in the body without being discovered.

Due to these reasons, it is entirely possible for a man's wife to get pregnant after having a vasectomy; however, as time passes after the operation, this possibility becomes less and less likely. If a wife is pregnant, the husband should calmly go to the hospital for a check-up to find out the reason, and not act emotionally, causing misunderstandings that will make the world laugh.

Why do we promote male sterilization?

Although female tubal ligation is a simple birth control measure with many benefits, male vasectomy is simpler, more convenient, safer and more reliable. Those who think that male ligation will seriously damage the vitality and that a family cannot be without the support of a "man" are wrong. At present, most female ligation in our country is due to this idea, not because female ligation is better than male ligation. Therefore, we must establish a scientific viewpoint and promote male ligation.

First of all, vasectomy is simple. It is located under the skin of the scrotum, superficially, and easy to hook, with a low possibility of accidental ligation. In addition, there are no important organs, blood vessels, or nerves next to the vas deferens, so it is not easy to be accidentally injured. In addition, the incision is small, does not enter the abdominal cavity, there is no obvious pain or bleeding, and few or no stitches are needed. You can go home after resting for one hour after the operation, and you can go back to work as usual two days later.

Secondly, vasectomy does not leave any sequelae and does not affect physical strength and sexual function. At the same time, men are generally open-minded, straightforward, and not suspicious or worried, so the psychological factors are less affected than women. However, in view of the current national conditions in my country, male sterilization must be performed with the couple fully understanding the principles and process of the operation and fully voluntarily. Otherwise, it will cause greater psychological pressure.
