Can a man still ejaculate after a vasectomy?

Male sterilization is a common sterilization method nowadays. It has a good contraceptive effect. After sterilization, men generally will not have children again. After sterilization, they should pay attention to rest, eat more nutritious food to help the body recover, and avoid strenuous exercise. Some men are more confused about whether men can still ejaculate after sterilization. Can men still ejaculate after sterilization? Let's take a look.

1. Can a man still ejaculate after having a vasectomy?

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.

Some people worry that they will not ejaculate after vasectomy, which will affect sexual pleasure. A small number of people will experience sexual dysfunctions of varying degrees, such as premature ejaculation, after sterilization. This is mainly due to psychological reasons, because after vasectomy, you can still ejaculate, but there will be no sperm in the semen.

After vasectomy, there is no damage to the testicles. The seminiferous tubules and interstitial cells of the testicles can still continue to produce sperm and secrete sex hormones to maintain normal male sexual function and maintain male secondary sexual characteristics. Therefore, men who want to undergo vasectomy do not have to worry about losing sexual ability, premature ejaculation, impotence, etc. after vasectomy.

After vasectomy, sexual pleasure will not be affected, because semen is a mixture of sperm and seminal plasma, of which seminal plasma secreted by the prostate, seminal vesicles, and bulbourethral glands accounts for 98% of the total volume. After vasectomy, only the channel for sperm to leak out is cut off, while the output of seminal plasma is still unimpeded.

Vasectomy recanalization is divided into two types: conventional vasectomy and microvasectomy. The former is performed under the naked eye, while the latter is performed with the help of a surgical microscope. It requires precise and accurate surgery to ensure that the anastomosis is unobstructed. The success rate of male vasectomy recanalization is relatively high, generally reaching more than 80%.

2. What are the dangers of male sterilization?

Male sterilization is a very simple and safe operation. The principle is to cut off or block the passage for sperm to be discharged from the body, which will not affect the production of sperm. Since the transport duct is cut off, sperm cannot be discharged, so it accumulates in the testicles and is reabsorbed, without any damage to the testicles. After sterilization, sexual intercourse still has a normal ejaculation process, and women can still feel the pleasure of ejaculation, but the semen does not contain sperm.

3. Reminder

The testicles' sperm production function is not affected and they still have the ability to absorb sperm normally. Therefore, male sterilization is not harmful to health and there is no need to worry too much.
