What Medical Tests Are Required Before Vasectomy Reversal Surgery?

Are you considering vasectomy reversal surgery but are anxious about having multiple tests performed? Fortunately, a vasectomy reversal surgeon requires few if any tests from good candidates for the procedure.

Vasectomy reversal, or vasovasostomy, is the procedure by which a vasectomy reversal surgeon reconnects the vas deferens. The vas deferens is the tiny tube that carries sperm away from the testes. Most healthy men have one vas deferens on each side. When a vasectomy is performed, surgeons like Dr. Green divide these tubes. For a vasectomy reversal, the tubes are reconnected so that sperm can again be ejaculated. To be a good candidate for vasectomy reversal, your surgeon will first make sure you are generally in good health. If you are taking blood pressure medication, your surgeon will suggest running a test to make sure you will not experience any problems with the surgical anesthesia. If you have other medical problems, you may need to be cleared by your primary care doctor.
