Treatment
1. Vasectomy can be surgically reversed to restore the natural patency of the male reproductive tract and a man’s fertility potential. In the past decade, microsurgical techniques have improved to the point that a vasectomy reversal is one of the most simple, successful, and cost-effective ways to help a couples achieve pregnancy when the male partner has had a vasectomy.
2. Sperm may be “extracted” from the male reproductive tract using a number of minimally invasive surgical techniques. Techniques used to retrieve sperm vary depending upon a man’s specific circumstances. In many cases, sperm may be retrieved in a clinic based procedure that takes less than an hour, and does not require any incisions. Sperm can then be cryopreserved for future use with reproductive technology.
