Vasectomy And Pregnancy Question
Posted: 12-08-05 13:13pm

My fiancee had a vasectomy nine years ago. In the procedure, a section of the vas deferens was removed and the ends capped with metal. We plan on having the vasectomy reversed after we get married. But i'm wondering if there is any change of pregnancy now? We wouldn't mind a miracle baby. Has anyone had pregnancy experience with this same situation?

For my sake, I sure as heck hope not.

But there is a reason they call it "permanent." it sounds like your fiancee had a good old slash and burn -- usually the most effective kind -- he must have pretty well intended for it to work.

Have you considered what you will do if the reversal doesn't work? The success rate is not brilliant, especially in those case where a piece is removed.

We haven't talked specifically if the reversal doesn't work... I refuse to adopt. But we both want kids together. I'm not sure on the statistics of effectiveness of the reversal or what other options we have. Is invetro one?
