From Laurie:- I have heard that there is a procedure that can be done if a man has had a vasectomy where sperm is taken from the man (using a needle) and injected into the egg through invitro-fertilization. I can’t seem to find any information on the possibility of extracting the sperm from the man [...]
Jul 17th 2007Post vasectomy swelling and bruising
From Cory:- Six days ago I had a double hernia repaired and a vasectomy done at the same time. I know that there will be swelling and bruising but the testicles are a dark red and almost purple. Is this common and if so how long can it last? Bruising after any surgical procedure can [...]

From Carole:- My husband had a vasectomy in late December 06. The Dr. said he should be tested at 8 weeks but he didn’t get in with the sample until 12 weeks or so. We were told the sample didn’t need to be fresh and so it was likely more than 8 hours old before [...]

Jul 17th 2007General questions
From Jon:- Can I obtain insurance against a vasectomy failure. If so how much and from where. Apparently it cost’s at least $150,000 to raise a child, so about $300,000 should do.

From Laura:- My husband, 31, was diagnosed with testicular torsion two weeks ago and underwent surgery to repair and fix the testicle. He was in pain for 4 days prior to the right diagnosis, but incredibly, they were able to salvage it. Is it okay to resume sexual activity after two weeks, as the steady [...]
