I had a vasectomy 58 years ago after my forth child was conceived. It didn't seem to shorten my life I'm now 84 years old. At the time I didn't want to be raising children in my fifties.

Dr. Mills, Please elaborate on reversal failure due to rupture at the repair site. What causes the fine sutures to fail? How long does it take for the tissue to completely heal?
I did it a little over 14 years ago at age 27 and I noticed a big difference in the way ejaculation felt. Regardless of what the video said, it felt like I lost all my testosterone. The only time I feel normal is when I'm on testosterone now. The wrong feeling I get with ejaculation has never went away.
Testosterone goes down at this age, if you drink a lot, don't workout, eat rubbish, have lot of stress it will lower your testosterone. I don't know how you can call feeling wrong, it's a feeling, not something to be judgmental about. There's no scientific proof of vasectomy lowering testosterone levels
My partner did it when he was in his 40s and it had been about 14 years. He just reversed it in may and I think it did help with him! As far as the energy flow and his energy. He’s happy he reversed it because his libido is higher, more energy, more erections, and he feels better overall. It was a little costly, about 9k, but worth it for how he feels 👍
@@kurlykaitlyn it’s a mental thing. After I got my vasectomy, I felt bad, too. But it was only because I tricked myself to believe that being able to shoot sperm out makes me feel different than not. We still produce sperm… so my guess is that he regretted having the vasectomy, to begin with.

Getting a vasectomy was the worst decision of my life. I lost my wife and my man hood. I did it a little over 16 years ago at age 27 and I noticed a big difference in the way ejaculation felt and my overall energy immediately afterwards. I lost all my testosterone and it feels weird and dulled in a uncomfortable way when I ejaculate. I can't explain the feeling. You would have to feel it yourself. The only time I feel normal is when I'm taking testosterone. Which I had to start doing at age 29 because my levels were so low.

My bf is 46, had vasectomy 5 years ago, he has 2 kids from previous marriage. I am 32, dying to have a child. He is scared of reversal surgery bc of pain, cost and less chances. Can they extract the sperm from him and tube fertilize it in me? Would it be cheaper and more chances? Any idea?
Hello Dr I would like to ask if the guy had vasectomy for almost 7-8yrs now, is there any chance to fail and get pregnant the wife? Hes 34 yrs old btw. PLEASE NOTICE ‼️‼️
My Bride & i have had 5children together. I had a vasectomy 6yrs ago. I am 49 my wife decided that she wanted more so recently a week ago i had a reversal. Lord willing we will have more soon😁
I'm 44 years old. Got my vasectomy in 2009-1010 . And I just got a reversal on September 27th, 2021. Let's hope my buddies like their bits and tackle again and want to see daylight.
Aren't you a bit selfish? Get the thing, put in your arm. It works for about a year. Or if YOU don't want kids...you get something done permanently. Not liking condoms is zero reason to have man to do this to himself.
It's nice to hear this from a male Dr. Tired of only women on here talking about men's problems. Very good explanation. The only thing that got me,you said the wife asks if he'll be able to ride a.bike why would she be asking this. He's the one riding it.
I thought their was no way to ever get my wife pregnant, or even give her good sex all because of vasectomy. But Dr Edoba came into my life and changed everything ☺️ Thanks for everything Doc♥️..
I’m 30 had a vasectomy about a year ago, thinking about reversing it. Does insurance pay for the reversal too if not How much and what’s the likelihood it’ll work?
Hey bro. Insurance doesn't cover it. I just had a reversal. I looked literally everywhere cause they are expensive. I found this clinic by Salt Lake City Utah. It's called male fertility and peyrones clinic. They charged me $2800 and I'm telling u these DR'S are good and they make it easy for a person that gets it. I live in NM and flew out to Utah got it done and flew back the next day. Look them up they are really good
I wish u guys the best. Look up that clinic I mentioned. Their prices are unbelievable and their process is so easy it seems fake lol. But between our surgery plane tickets rental car and hotel we were right around $4500 which is still half the amount that they wanted in Abq. If you guys have any more questions just ask and I’ll try and reply. Good luck to u both
I’ve had a vasectomy 17 years ago because my wife and I decided not to have any children. Now we are both considering having a baby. I’m now 47 years old and my wife 42. We are both young looking and healthy. Healthy sex life. Not taking my wife’s age into consideration, what are the chances of me getting a successful reversal?
My husband done vasectomy 5 years ago he is 38 yrs old and I am 31 yrs old what are the chances for reversal to get pregnant again and what will cost me
I believe the odds are quite high. 75%-90% for sperm to be found in semen post reversal. I don't think fertility is quite as high but i may be wrong. I Believe prognosis depends on semen quality when the surgeon open's the Proximal end of the Vas connected to the testicle. If that looks good ( as in flows ) , then odds are better. If its blocked further back from Eoididymal blowout , then a vasoepididymostomy may need to be performed with the Distal Vas end attached directly to the Epidyimus. This bypasses blockages hopefully. Vasoepididyostomys are even more specialised and may cost more. They are also less successful. In Australia its out of pocket cost is between 6 - 10 thousand Aussie. Which might be 3.5 to 7k is US. Recovery is about 2 weeks convalescence. With NSAIDS and maybe opiate cover for pain. The operation is 4 hours and needs a general anaesthetic in most cases. As with Vasectomy. Reversals come with risk of infection, heamatoma, permanent nerve damage and chronic pain. Although its actually the treatment for chronic vasectomy pain too in most cases. Worth mentioning that his Testicles will sit higher post reversal, as Vas length has been lost. All the best in your future :)
From what we've been reading. *As long as the reversal is in 10Year window, be hopeful. So 5yrs should be fine.* But factors like your age, weight, whether you've had kids before and ovulate "properly" can affect how quick you have a baby. *Good luck!* And buy some cheap $20 Ovulation & pregnancy tests off Amazon if it doesn't happen in a year. *Costs will vary. *
@@FilipinaMeetsAustralian Yeah. I had a reversal. It worked for about 3 months then both Vas occluded again. They count the reversal as successful if sperm is measured 1 month post but i don't think the papers measure how long reversal's last. The Vasdefrons is just to small a tube to put back together. Scar tissue blocks it again. My opinion on vasectomy now is that they are permanent, despite what a urologist will tell you. Worse thing i ever did was have a vasectomy :(
@@leighbyford635 wow,, how i wish my husband realize it, I asked him why he did it,, it was because of his ex, which is reasonable coz they had already 3 kids. Though I knew before we got married that he cannot make baby. Now i have that feeling to have a child, from him. But I am also feel guilty to give him a burden coz of I am wanting a baby.
I came here because Michael said that he had 3 vasectomies. SNIP SNAP SNIP SNAP SNIP SNAP! I want to have an idea how the physical toll can 3 vasectomies have on a person.
My partner and I are looking into it. He had his 20 years ago. He is 18 years older than me, and didn’t expect to get with a younger woman later on in life. But our dr told us a reversal will be basically pointless, and that we will likely have to conceive via sperm aspiration + IVF. Good luck to you guys! I hope you get your baby ❤️
Yes many men choose vasectomy and then their wives divorce them bc they are infertile. The men go on to seek another partner but most women want babies. So yeah get my point?
I got a vesecdomy and I truly regret it your body was never ment to be modified if your a man or women I don't want more children but this is to much I'm depressed
i fucking hate how he says "men" and "female"...either say male-female or men-women (preferably the first as we are talking about biological sex here...)
No, F you, it is right and correct and wonderful how he does that. The concept of a man is more akin to usage of the word man vs male, whereas the concept of a woman/female is better represented by the word "female" than "woman". I submit you're possibly offended by the word "female" juxtaposed with "man" because you're a feminist under demonic persuasion which loves how the word "woman" has become geriatrified in modern English speaker psychology. This is a subtle linguistics psychological brainwashing artifact of feminists brainwashing society that women are younger than they really are and the opposite for men; their infantilization of young women. You are fooled and supporting wrong beliefs.
The idea that men would even CONSIDER a vasectomy is unbelievable! How ridiculous!!! Never ever ever go for a vasectomy! Get your wife to tie HER tubes not yours!
