Can my vasectomy be reversed?

Vasectomy reversal is successful up to 90 percent of the time. The outpatient procedure requires general anesthesia and usually takes about two hours. You’ll experience some swelling and discomfort afterward, but not much more than from the original surgery. In two weeks you can have sex again, and you should start producing sperm within three months. In a year, you and your wife will have a 50 to 60 percent chance of conceiving, compared with 80 percent for couples with no fertility problems.
