Dr. Jean-Phillipe Bercier from Clinic Vasectomy has specialized in minor urological surgeries for more than 5 years, and has performed thousands of procedures. Dr. Bercier is here to set the record straight and address some of the most common misconceptions about vasectomy reversals.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the vasectomy reversal success rates?<\/h2>\n<p>Most doctors will tell you that there is no guarantee of a vasectomy reversal. In the past, reversals were much less successful. Today, the technique Dr. Bercier uses has an 85% success rate overall at retrieving spermatozoids 1 month after the reversal.<\/p>\n<h2>Can a vasectomy be reversed after 15 years?<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s true that success rates are higher when the reversal is done within 5 to 10 years from the <a href=\"\/?page_id=450\">vasectomy<\/a>. But, Dr. Bercier insists that you shouldn\u2019t discount a reversal if your vasectomy is more than 10 years old. Newer techniques make it possible for surgeons to reverse a vasectomy even after more than a decade has passed.<\/p>\n<h2>Can ejaculating too soon after vasectomy reversal damage it?<\/h2>\n<p>Dr. Bercier suggests to all his patients that they go 3 weeks with no ejaculation following a vasovasostomy. Many men wrongly believe that there will be \u201cold\u201d sperm in the testicles that needs to be ejaculated after a reversal. Actually, the body constantly makes new sperm. A vasectomy simply cuts off the pathway between the sperm and the semen. The sperm in the testicles just gets absorbed into your body, making room for new sperm.<\/p>\n<h2>Get the facts on vasectomy reversal<\/h2>\n<p>Instead of wondering if you are a good candidate for a vasectomy reversal, make an appointment with an experienced doctor who can assess your health and the potential for a successful surgery. You can learn more about the procedure to determine the next best steps for your situation. Dr. Bercier has <a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquevasectomie.ca\/en\/\">vasectomy clinics in Montreal<\/a>, Ottawa and Hawkesbury, and will be happy to answer questions and provide more details. <a href=\"\/?page_id=446\">Book an appointment at any of the clinics<\/a>. Don&#8217;t let misconceptions hold you back from making an informed decision about vasectomy reversal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you considering a vasectomy reversal but unsure about the  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":202,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[78,71,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,77,87,88,89],"class_list":["post-201","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-vasovasostomy","tag-are-vasectomy-reversible","tag-can-a-vasectomy-be-reversed","tag-can-vasectomy-be-reversed","tag-can-you-reverse-a-vasectomy","tag-can-you-undo-a-vasectomy","tag-is-a-vasectomy-reversible","tag-is-vasectomy-reversible","tag-reverse-vasectomy","tag-reverse-vasectomy-success-rate","tag-reversible-vasectomy","tag-vasectomy-reversal","tag-vasectomy-reversal-success-rate","tag-vasectomy-reversal-success-rates","tag-vasectomy-reversible"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Debunking Common Vasectomy Reversal Myths | Clinic Vasectomy<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Uncover the truth about vasectomy reversal, dispel myths, and make informed choices for your future.
