Possibilities in Vasectomy Reversal with Dr. Kapadia

Dr. Kapadia discusses how a vasectomy reversal is not as simple as connecting the previously separated tubes of the vas deference again. In fact, he doesn't know what type of procedure he will use until the day of surgery. This decision is made in part by examining the testicular fluid under a microscope. If the semen is clear, a vas-to-vas connection or vasovasostomy is typically performed with success rates of 90 to 95%. If the fluid is more viscous, there could be a secondary blockage, and a bypass or vasoepididymostomy may be required to restore fertility. Either way, having an experienced men's health and fertility specialist like Dr. Kapadia gives patients the best chance for fertility when reversing a vasectomy.
