Vasectomy Reversal Information

Every year about 500,000 American men get a vasectomy. Depending on your source of information, between 1% and 10% of these men will eventually have their vasectomy reversed. Most insurance companies in the United States do not cover vasectomy reversal surgery. This means that patients can choose any doctor they want. Many patients travel to have their vasectomy reversal. This gives them many options for choosing a vasectomy reversal specialist.

Success rates for vasectomy reversals can be surprisingly high. Some surgeons report that for a vasectomy less than 3 years old, greater than 95% will see a return of sperm and greater than 75% will achieve pregnancy. The success rates decline with the length of time since the vasectomy. As you decide on a vasectomy reversal practitioner you should educate yourself about:

• Microsurgical vasectomy reversals compared to macroscopic techniques
• Vasovasostomy (reconnection of the vas)
• Vasoepidymostomy or vasoepididymostomy (connecting the vas to the epididymis)
• Anti-sperm antibodies and their potential impacts to sperm motility
