I have 3 questions for you.
1)My fiance got a vasectomyBefore and after vasectomy Vasectomy reversal 2 weeks ago and is traveling to Germany on Sunday for a week for business. Is it ok that he will be seated for that long on the flight?
2)We were told he is not to ejaculate for 6-8 weeks. Is it okay if he gets an erection though? As we know, sometimes it's uncontollable.
3)The majority of where they stitched him up has healed but a part of it still has drops of blood on his underwear in the morning. Is that normalNormal saline flush?
Your surgeon will want to examine his semen after surgery to see if the operation was successful. A sperm count is the only way to tell if the vasectomy reversal was a success.
Take care and keep us posted.
Before going to this trip it would be best for him to call his doctor and inform him of this trip. Any physical labor or job that requires much walking or driving must be cleared also. It is generally advised to refrain from sports and heavy lifting for at least three weeks. A jockstrap is also recommended for several weeks at all times, except when showering for support. It is sometimes difficult to control erection, but it is important that no ejaculation is present. It is important to keep the incision clean and dry at all times and to finish the course of antibiotics prescribed to prevent infection.
