Vasectomy and Pregnancy
      |
|
The reasons behind pregnancy after vasectomy could be technical error, the reopening of the occluded passageway that carries sperm or the presence of residual motile sperm in the seminal vesicles even after vasectomy. The restoration of the sperm channel may happen early or late. An early recanalization (spontaneous reconnection of the vas deferens) may be detected in the post-vasectomy specimens. However, late recanalization is said to occur when several post vasectomy specimens do not show any sperm, which is discovered years after when the pregnancy has already occurred.
The above discussion relates to natural vasectomy reversal, which may not always come as a pleasant surprise! Thus, it is recommended to continue using contraceptives such as birth control pills for at least six months post vasectomy. This is because a minimum of twenty ejaculations after vasectomy have been found to contain viable sperm. On the other hand, there are couples, which after vasectomy may be desirous of more children and that chance pregnancy may not happen to them. That’s where the Vasectomy reversal procedure by a specialist comes into the picture!
Vasectomy reversal pregnancy rates are defined by factors such as the success
rate of complicated epididymal surgeries that have to be conducted on most reversals.
Besides, the sperm count, quality and fertility has also been noticed to decline
progressively with the years after vasectomy. However, reversals performed even
20 or more years after vasectomy have known to succeed after epidiymal surgeries.
Besides, new techniques of microsurgical epididymal surgery are contributing
to an increase in the success rate of pregnancy after vasectomy reversal. There
are several success stories of pregnancies after vasectomy that have brightened
the lives of several people. Success rate varies with the methodology used,
the experience and expertise of the vasectomy doctor and the years between vasectomy
and the reversal attempt. It takes an average of 12 months, and at the most
2-3 years between vasectomy reversal and the pregnancy to occur. Thus, if you
decide to have another child years after vasectomy, you’ve got hope. So
do millions of people across the globe who want to grow their families. Vasectomy
reversal helps you achieve the delight, happiness and pleasure of parenthood!
