Sperm are stored in the testicles and from there they make their way up the penis during ejaculation through a string-like tube called the vas deferens. Vasectomies are procedures where the doctor breaches the wall of the scrotum and pulls out a small section of the vas deferens. Then the vas deferens is severed using a procedure called the “intraluminal cauterization with fascial interposition”. The technique is effective in essentially cutting off the sperm from reaching the ejaculate during sexual activity, thus essentially eliminating the possibility of a pregnancy. The procedure is, however, not perfect and some microchannels can form between the two severed ends of the vas deferens, leading to semen in the discharge being present for a small number of vasectomy cases. One review of 14,000 men who’d had various types of vasectomy reported six conceptions among their partners.

Every year, around 500,000 vasectomy procedures are performed in the United States. However, a lot of those that go through the procedure, express the desire to have more children a few years after it. Vasectomies can make a lot of sense for family planning but there is no saying when one might reconsider their priorities in life and want to feel the joys of parenthood again. A vasectomy reversal procedure gives families the choice to have children again and expand their household.

Dr. Mark Hickman talks about the longing that men, who’ve had a vasectomy, feel when they want to bring a new bundle of joy of their own flesh and blood into the world again, or for the first time, by saying, “Vasectomies are going to help you prevent unwanted pregnancies without sacrificing your hormone levels, sex drive, or the pleasure of the sexual experience. It is much safer compared to female sterilization and your partner will thank you for considering her needs while still giving you the choice to perform a reversal down the road if you want to attempt to have children again. If you have already had a vasectomy and the thought of bringing another little angel to grace your life is exciting to you, contact my office in New Braunfels today and I’ll guide you through the process so that you can enjoy the pure bliss of fatherhood again.”

Dr. Hickman has more than 26 years of experience under his belt as a leading minimally invasive surgeon and he has conducted more than 1,300 vasectomy reversals. He has also ‘corrected’ many vasectomy reversals from other providers as well with great success. He received his medical degree from the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, TX, at age 23 where he also trained in general surgery. He began his private practice in New Braunfels, TX, in 1988 and soon after became an early pioneer of laparoscopic (minimally invasive telescopic) surgery. He also served the country in Operation Desert Storm aboard the hospital ship USNS Mercy.

Dr. Hickman answers a question that he often gets fielded about the cost of vasectomy reversal by saying, “There is an enduring myth that vasectomy reversals are too expensive or the affordable procedures are dangerous or ineffective. The truth of the matter is that you don’t have to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars for a vasectomy reversal. My years of microsurgery experience give me the expertise to administer this life-changing procedure with near 100% accuracy and complete safety at a price that anyone can afford with no hidden fees. I provide the highest level of care while offering affordable vasectomy reversal procedures for an all-inclusive rate of $3300 which includes local anesthesia and an oral sedative. Those who want to be completely sedated can also opt for the slightly more expensive option which costs $4200 and includes IV sedation administered by a Board Certified Anesthesiologist.”
