You may have had a change of circumstances and decided that you would like to reverse your vasectomy (a vasovasostomy). If you are certain you want this procedure, the sooner you do it the better, as delaying it can affect its success. Results are variable, but age is not a barrier to treatment.
How does it work?
This procedure aims to rejoin the tubes which the sperm pass through (vas deferens) to allow sperm to travel again. These tubes will have been cut during the vasectomy. In a vasectomy reversal, the aim is to rejoin the tubes with very fine stitches, using specialised microsurgery.
A vasectomy reversal takes one to three hours and is under a general anaesthetic. The final success of the process can take up to twelve months to be established.
