[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]A vasectomy is reversible[/b]. You'd need up-to-date sperm count testing, plus a full panel for STIs.

Men can't be trusted. Verify. Always. And then still use condoms, because men.[/quote]

A vasectomy is considered [u]non-reversible[/u].  You have to sign a paper saying you understand that before you get one.  The micro-vascular surgery required to reverse it is complicated but, even if they successfully re-attach the vas, a man can still be infertile.  When a man has a vasectomy, the billions of sperm are absorbed by his body and sometimes, the immune system will attack them.  This can also happen to a man who hasn't had a vasectomy and be a cause of infertility.  So even if the the attachment goes well, he may still be infertile.  No one should ever count on a vasectomy being reversible.  I wish it was that simple.  If only they could install a simple valve in teenage boys that would not be opened until he is ready to have children, then closed again. [/quote]

When I went in for mine, every other guy there (about 7 of them) was getting it reversed. They all looked to be 50+. I asked my urologist why, and he answered right away: "Second marriages".

Yes, you do have to sign a paper it can't be reversed, but there's a decent chance it can be. I chose to bank my sperm so I'm covered either way.[/quote]
