Your Role Matters
We're Here to Guide You
Making the decision to pursue a vasectomy reversal is a big step, and we know that, more often than not, wives and partners are the ones leading the research, asking the right questions, and supporting their spouse through the process. Your role in this journey is invaluable—not just in gathering information, but in providing encouragement, reassurance, and care along the way. We want you to feel just as informed and supported as your partner, because this is a shared experience, and you matter too.
Vasectomy Reversal, Simplified
Vasectomy reversal should be a precise, microsurgical procedure that reconnects the vas deferens, allowing sperm to return to the semen. Here’s why so many couples choose Carolina Vasectomy Reversal for this life-changing step:
Supporting Your Partner: Before, During & After
Your support is essential to your partner's decision-making and recovery process. Here’s a simple breakdown of how you can help at each stage:
-
Before the Procedure – Help your partner get ready by discussing expectations, scheduling time off work, and preparing a relaxing, stress-free recovery space at home. Most men do not read directions let alone follow them.
-
During the Procedure – The surgery is done under local anesthesia with mild sedation, so your partner should be very relaxed and comfortable throughout. It typically takes about 2-2.5 hours.
-
After Surgery – Rest and minimal movement are key for the first few days. Use ice and lie flat as much as possible. Bruising and swelling is a 48 hour process. If there is no swelling or discomfort the next morning, continue with the rest and ice as it can occur later if you start doing too much. Encourage him to avoid heavy lifting and sexual activity for a full 30 days after the surgery.
-
Emotional & Physical Support – This journey is shared, so open communication, assistance, reassurance, and giving him time to heal will support a smooth recovery and allow the best results.
