VASECTOMY REVERSAL

Success rates vary based on factors like how many years it’s been since your vasectomy, your age, and the surgical technique used. If your vasectomy was within the last 10 years, patency (return of sperm) rates are 90%+, and, if there are no female fertility issues, pregnancy rates are 70%. Our surgeons will talk through your personal odds in detail.

Most men can return to light activities within a few days and normal routines in about 1–2 weeks. We provide detailed guidance on rest, pain management, and when you can safely resume sex and exercise.

Yes! We offer a free telehealth consult prior to booking your procedure. At your appointment, your Posterity Health doctor will take the time to learn about your personal situation, understand your needs, and find the best path forward for you and your family. A vasovasostomy or vasoepididymostomy are both complicated operations so we want to find the best vasectomy reversal for you.

Most insurance plans don’t cover the procedure itself (it’s usually considered elective). However, consults, testing, and related care may be partially covered. Some fertility benefit managers, like Maven, Carrot, WINFertility, and CapEXMD may offer reduced pricing or coverage for a vasectomy reversal. Call us at (720) 759-3723 to speak with a member of our care team. We’ll help you check your benefits and provide transparent pricing.

Many men start trying a few weeks to months after surgery, once sperm is confirmed in the semen analysis. Your doctor will give a personalized recommendation based on healing and results.

If sperm doesn’t return or pregnancy doesn’t happen, there are still options. Sperm retrieval during reversal can sometimes be used for IVF, and other advanced fertility techniques are available. We’ll help you plan the next steps if needed.

You’ll be completely asleep under general anesthesia during the procedure. Most men report mild to moderate discomfort for a few days afterward, which is easily managed with medications and supportive care.

Our surgeons use advanced microsurgical techniques that require only a small incision—typically one centimeter long. Scarring is minimal and carefully placed.

Most vasectomy reversals take about 2–3 hours, depending on the complexity. You’ll go home the same day with clear instructions for a safe, comfortable recovery.
