Unfortunately it is still effective. Once you make the decision to have it done, it's made permanent.
Vastectomies can be reversed, but it isn't 100% effective.
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?
If the vasectomy was performed properly, it is generally considered to be extremely effective. There is, however, a chance that it didn't "take".
Yes it is possible for you to get pregnant. That is why they say it is 99.9% effective there is always a possibility and I have seen it happen
10 to 15 lbs max i just got a vasectomy
Because if there is no sperm in the ejaculate there is no fertilization.
A vasectomy involves cutting or sealing the vas deferens tubes that carry sperm from the testicles. This prevents sperm from being ejaculated during sex, reducing the chance of fertilizing a female's egg. It is a highly effective form of permanent contraception.
no, unless vasectomy was reversed at some point (an OR nurse)
It is possible that the vasectomy was not effective, or it occassionally will heal itself. A doctor's office can test his ejaculate and see if it contains sperm.
yes
Although it's rare for a vasectomy to "reverse" on its own, it has happened.
If the vasectomy was done properly, there should not even be a 5% chance of getting pregnant, as this procedure is the most effective way of preventing pregnancy short of a hysterectomy or abstinence. The best thing to do is to have your husband see his physician and have a semenalysis performed, where they can determine whether or not he has any sperm in his ejaculate. Often after a vasectomy, the body recognizes sperm as a foreign substance and "attacks" it with antibodies; this is why vasectomy reversals don't work a good deal of the time. ! Dr. B.
