Answer: A vasectomy is surgery to cut vas deferens. If test confirmed no sperm, that means opp was a success. Do it again in another lab to be sure. AndroGel can't reverse the vasectomy. Probably your wife's condition is caused by other reason. If her situation persists, must see a doctor.

Answer: Having a period doesn't mean that you are not pregnant. What you could very well think is your period could be spotting due to the embyo implanting in the uterine wall. This occurs a few days after fertilization happens. If pregnancy test is positive, go to a doctor because the bleeding could be a sign you might have a problem.

Answer: A well-recognized condition that occurs among a small number of men after vasectomy, is known as post vasectomy pain syndrome. It can begin immediately after the vasectomy or many months or even years after vasectomy has been completed. Some studies report as high as one third of men after vasectomy have some type of lingering discomfort. Other studies report that the frequency of post vasectomy pain is one case in thousands. So trust your doctor. Usually doctors are right. If your pain persists you may ask for other opinion.

Question: I was wondering if you could help me with a kind of embarrassing question. My husband had a vasectomy about 4 years ago. (private and embarrassing details were removed) Any idea if this is recanalization or something else?
by Samantha Oct 24, 2007

Answer: Technically, vasectomy means to cut or tie off the two tubes that carry sperm out of the testicles and recanalization is very rare. Our advice is to have a test to see if sperm is active or not.

Question: I had a vasectomy yesterday at 5:00 pm. I had the non-sclapel method and feel great. No issues as of now. I wanted to have sex with my wife at about 9:00 and everything seemed to work well enough to do that but the wife insisted that I don't do it. I'm not concerned about the pregnancy risk I'm just concerned would it cause physical issues to me if I were to have an orgasm less than a day or two after procedure or would that cause problems inside me. I can hold off but if I get an erection and feel good why not go ahead and do it? Am I wrong?
by CD Oct 24, 2007

Answer: You can have sex as soon as you're comfortable but it is advisable to wait about a week. Remember for the first 15-20 ejaculations sperm will still be present in your system, so use another form of contraception until semen analysis shows that sperm are no longer present in your seminal fluid.

Question: Vasectomy does effect the amount of liquid ejected after an orgasm? Also, is it normal for the penis to not stay hard very long?
by faytravels September 13, 2007

Answer: Have you seen a doctor about you are experiencing? He could measure your testosterone levels which have bearing on sex drive and also look into why you seem to be feeling less at ejaculation.
