Can a man have a vasectomy reversal after it has been done 25 years ago?

Yes, it is possible to reverse a vasectomy. Usually if you're not sure this is what you want permanently, they can surgically insert valves instead of just cutting and tying
off or cauterizing the tubes and this makes it quiet easy to reverse a vasectomy. How ever it's a bit more costly to do that.
They can also be reversed with micro surgery to reattach the tubes together also a
bit spendy.
Hope this helps.

∙ 14y agoI think you can but it's up to your doctor after examening you. It will be more complicated and more painful then the vasectomy though. And it might not work.

Preparing for a Vasectomy Reversal?
A reversal of vasectomy is the process of reconnecting the seminal tubes in a male so that sperm will once again be ejected upon ejaculation. According to the Mayo Clinic, about 50% of the vasectomy reversals done are successful and are able to achieve a pregnancy in a female. Of the other 50% that fail, in vitro fertilization may still be an option.Pre-Surgery PreparationDoctors will test your sperm count to make sure you have viable sperm that may result in a pregnancy should the reversal take. They may test your partner to make sure that she is fertile. They will take you off any blood thinners, including Tylenol and aspirin. You will be shaved prior to the surgery and will have to have a clean jockstrap to use afterwards. This jockstrap will be worn at all times after the surgery until you are properly healed.SurgeryThere are many different techniques that can be used in vasectomy reversal and you will need to discuss with your doctor which is right for you. You will receive anesthesia. Some of your sperm may be frozen at this time if you have decided to bank sperm in case of a vasectomy reversal failure.After SurgeryThe area will be bandaged and you may feel groggy from the anesthesia. You will need to have an ice pack to use for inflammation reduction and you will be given some pain killers to ease any pain you may experience. You will have to rest and avoid water in the first two days after surgery. There will be a ban on sexual relations for about a month, giving you time to heal properly. Your doctor will let you know upon examination when you can go back to work, exercise, and normal sexual relations.RisksYou will need to be prepared for the risk involved in the procedure. There is a risk of scrotum inflammation from the surgery and infection. There can be bleeding in the scrotum that may cause additional pain or there can be nerve and blood vessel damage. Talk with your surgeon about the risks and benefits of vasectomy reversal and weigh your options carefully. A reversal of vasectomy is still a safer procedure than a woman’s tubal ligation reversal, but is still a medical procedure with risk.
What is the possibility of a man getting a woman pregnant after a vasectomy?
Depending on how long after the vasectomy you have intercourse, after he had he vasectomy they usually test his sperm on a regular basis until there are no sperm present. If he had his vasectomy months to years ago then no you cannot get pregnant. It is possible it has come undone or is leaking. Regular Dr checkups are a way to prevent that. Old vasectomys were a clip. The clip may not be pinching anymore. Sperm can last up to 20 ejaculations...or 3mths after vasectomy. Be careful. Yes, but the chances are very slim. Vasectomies are the most reliable method of family planning with a failure rate of less than 1 per thousand. The most common reasons for failure are a) that the man didn't wait long enough after the operation (usually 2-3 weeks or 20 ejaculations) before having sex, and b) that the vas deferens spontaneously reconnected. The chances of a failure after properly clearing and being tested at 3 months are put at about 1 in 4000, or 0.025%.
When having a vasectomy is it percutaneous?
Some are done that way. Others are done by using an incision in the scrotum.
If you had a tubal ligation done 10-12 years ago and your husband had a vasectomy at the same time how common is it to become pregnant?
It happened to my mom and step dad. My mom had a tubal done 11 years ago (at the time it happened) and my stepdad had a visectomy done 13 years ago(from the time it happened). A vasectomy is not considered 100% effective and the doctors told my mom after 10 years tubes can come untied. And that's how my little half sister got here. Remember, nothing is ever considered 100% effective, weird huh?
What is the cpt code for semen analysis following a bilateral vasectomy?
Semen analysis would be a part of the initial surgical package when the vasectomy was done.
Is a vasectomy still effective years after it was performed?
Yes. There have been a couple of very rare cases where a vasectomy has not been permanent due to the man's severed tubes "reconnecting" by forming a new path - nature overcoming! But these cases are very rare compared to the vast number of vasectomies performed. After having the procedure, you should've been tested - about a month later - to make sure it was successful. After this time you should consider yourself sterile.
