Vasectomy Reversal in Hawkesbury

Life brings many unexpected changes. If you’ve had a vasectomy at a time in your life when you thought you no longer wanted children, but things changed, you need to talk to your doctor in Hawkesbury about vasectomy reversal. A vasectomy doesn’t stop the body from producing sperm, it just blocks the sperm from entering the semen. A vasovasostomy is a medical procedure that restores the sperm to the semen, giving you and your partner the opportunity to have children.

A vasectomy reversal at the Bercier Clinic is an out-patient procedure that may restore the possibility of conception.

What Happens During a Vasovasostomy at Our Hawkesbury Clinic?

A vasectomy reversal is performed without general anesthesia and is an outpatient procedure. Most patients are in and out in one day. The surgeon makes a tiny incision in the scrotum to reconnect the ends of the vas deferens to make a pathway for the sperm. The doctor will test the fluid coming from the testis during the procedure to make sure spermatozoids are present.

How Successful Is Vasectomy Reversal?

Vasectomy reversal rates vary. The most important factor is how long it has been since the vasectomy. The Bercier clinic has a high success rate.

Frequently Asked Questions about Vasectomy Reversal in Hawkesbury

A vasectomy reversal typically takes 2 to 4 hours to complete. The length of the surgery depends on the complexity of the case, particularly whether a vasovasostomy (reconnection of the vas deferens) or a more intricate vasoepididymostomy (reconnection between the vas deferens and epididymis) is needed. This microsurgical procedure is performed using specialized instruments under high magnification to ensure precise reconnections. The surgery is usually done on an outpatient basis, meaning you’ll be able to return home the same day without needing an overnight hospital stay. This helps reduce recovery time and the risk of complications.

Vasectomy reversal procedures are generally not covered by public healthcare in Canada, including Ontario, but some private insurance plans may offer partial coverage. It’s important to verify with your provider before proceeding.

The chances of conceiving after a vasectomy reversal vary based on factors like the time since the original vasectomy and the patient’s overall health. However, many men achieve successful pregnancies with their partners after the procedure.

During your consultation, bring your medical history and be prepared to discuss any previous surgeries or health concerns. Our team will provide detailed instructions on how to prepare for the procedure.
