Treatments for male infertility are influenced by at least three important factors: 1. Cause of male infertility, if identifiable, 2. Severity of the sperm defect, and 3. Age of the female partner. In the case of a prior vasectomy being the cause of the male infertility, there are two treatment choices – vasectomy reversal or IVF-ICSI with epididymal or testicular extraction. Age and health of female partner and length of time since vasectomy are important factors in decision-making. It can sometimes take 6-9 months to recover adequate levels following reversals. The more time between the vasectomy and the reversal, the greater the chances are that the surgery will be unsuccessful or that anti-sperm antibodies will form.
