Vasectomy Reversal Cost Components

Because a vasectomy reversal is not covered by insurance, the patient pays an all-inclusive fee to the surgeon. This fee covers all of the components of having the vasectomy reversal procedure to include:

  • The surgeon’s fee to perform the reversal.
  • The facility fee: the cost of the nurses and staffing.
  • The accredited facility (operating room).
  • Microscopic suture materials and the operating microscope.
  • The anesthesiologist and the anesthesia instrumentation to safely provide general anesthesia.
  • The cost of overnight accommodations (if necessary).

Our All-Inclusive Vasectomy Reversal Price

The total cost for a  microscopic vasectomy reversal at the Northeast Georgia Ambulatory Surgery Center includes general anesthesia in an accredited surgical center.

This represents a total cost package with absolutely no hidden fees.

CareCredit is an option for couples preferring to pay by an installment plan with a medical credit card.

Contact our office | 770.535.0000 or email: jmchugh@gavasectomyreversal.com for more information or to schedule a free consultation.

Vasectomy Reversal Success Factors

In addition to asking about cost, the most common question the couple seeking information about reversing a vasectomy is, “What is the success rate?” 

Three factors have the most important impact on the success of a vasectomy reversal:

  • The number of years since the vasectomy.
  • The skill and experience of the surgeon.
  • The findings at the time of surgery (the quality of the fluid). 
  • All of these factors are discussed as well as other questions important to you, will be addressed during the phone consultation.

Vasectomy Reversal Success Rates:

Less than 3 years  Patency 97% Pregnancy 76%

3-8 years             Patency 88% Pregnancy 53%

9-14 years           Patency 79% Pregnancy 44%

Ga Vasectomy Reversal Microscopic Technique

technique of georgia vasectomy reversal inner layer

Using an operating microscope, suture the size of hair (9-0 Nylon) is used to align the openings of the vas tubes. Dr. McHugh uses the Modified Two-Layer technique. The first layer joins both the outside of the vas and the inner opening  (the channel that carries the sperm).

technique georgia vasectomy reversal outer layer

The second layer joins the outside of each of the vas tubes. As a result, this method provides for both the proper alignment of the lumen as well as support of the repair assuring a tension free connection.

Studies have shown that this technique has similar success  rates as other methods which take longer to perform and can incur a greater expense. A total of 14-16 microscopic sutures are placed on each side. The procedure lasts two hours. The entire time spent at our facility is usually around 3 hours.

Thank you!

I had my vasectomy reversal in February 2018 and my wife got pregnant in May 2018, only 3 months later! The service and attention received before, during and after the procedure was excellent. The team was very warm and super easy to work with.

My wife and I are happy to announce that we are now expecting in March of 2020. This wouldn’t be possible without Dr. McHugh and his amazing staff! Thank y’all!

We are happy to report that we are pregnant! Thank you to all of you who participated in our care, especially Dr. McHugh. We are so pleased and excited.

With time, prayers and of course a great surgeon we now have a healthy baby boy! Thank you!

Twice as Nice!

My husband asked questions ahead of time and from friends that previously had the procedure. He felt confident going in and completely comfortable during the procedure. Highly recommend them.

What does sperm look like under a microscope after vasectomy reversal?

Sperm-egg

Evaluation of Sperm after Vasectomy Reversal

Several times a month a patient, who has had a vasectomy reversal,  will drop off a specimen to see if there are any sperm present. This evaluation takes just a minute to do. If sperm is present it means that the reversal mechanically is open and has been successful. This evaluation however doesn’t count the sperm, that would require a full semen analysis which is done through the hospital lab and quantitates the actual number of sperm present.

For the purposes of seeing if the reversal “worked or not” the in office check for sperm is sufficient. If there are no sperm and it has been three months post reversal this may either means that reversal is not open but probably more likely that the testicles have not “picked up the ball” and started producing sperm yet. It can take four to twelve months for the sperm to be produced in numbers sufficient for conception. The time to producing sperm by the testicles post vasectomy is large part dependent on the interval between the vasectomy and the reversal.

It is always a “drum roll” moment when the specimen is dropped off for me to evaluate and always rewarding to see sperm moving about so excited to be set free and get to work.

Atlanta Vasectomy Reversal Cost | All-Inclusive Components

Atlanta Vasectomy Reversal Specialist Cost | Experience, Success and the Best All-Inclusice Price in the Southeast.

Atlanta vasectomy reversal baby

Because the vasectomy reversal cost is usually not covered by insurance, the patient pays an all inclusive fee to the surgeon. As a result, this fee covers all of the components of having a surgical procedure such as:

  • The surgeon’s fee to perform the reversal.
  • The facility fee which includes the cost of the nurses and staffing, the facility (operating room), suture materials and the operating microscope.
  • A board certified anesthesiologist and the anesthesia supplies necessary to put a patient to sleep.
  • The cost of overnight accommodations (if necessary).

Vasectomy Reversal Accreditation and Safety

At Northeast Georgia Urological Associates our facility is accredited and owned by our practice which in turn allows our all-inclusive to be much less than if a hospital were used. Our anesthesiologists are board certified as well as Dr. McHugh.

His team was very kind and thorough post surgery as well, following up via phone and email to be sure my husband had the best recovery he could. Our chances for conceiving were less than 50% and we just had our daughter a month before the one year mark from surgery. Leanna T.     September  2022

a vasectomy reversal success

After extensive research, we found that the technique performed by Dr. McHugh was the best fit for us. It was the least invasive, and offered the fastest recovery. Dr. McHugh & his team delivered a high caliber of service & comfort for me, & I am extremely thankful for his practice.

Naomi  was born just 12 months after having my surgery, & we couldn’t be happier with our newest addition!

Thank you!

I had my vasectomy reversal in February 2018 and my wife got pregnant in May 2018, only 3 months later! The service and attention received before, during and after the procedure was excellent. The team was very warm and super easy to work with.

My wife and I are happy to announce that we are now expecting in March of 2020. This wouldn’t be possible without Dr. McHugh and his amazing staff! Thank y’all!

We are happy to report that we are pregnant! Thank you to all of you who participated in our care, especially Dr. McHugh. We are so pleased and excited.

With time, prayers and of course a great surgeon we now have a healthy baby boy! Thank you!

Twice as Nice!

My husband asked questions ahead of time and from friends that previously had the procedure. He felt confident going in and completely comfortable during the procedure. Highly recommend them.

Pretty in Pink

Another happy reversal result!

If it was easy to get pregnant before the vasectomy…will it be easy to get pregnant after the reversal? Well…it depends.

img_0421

So…I hike a trail most every evening after work and on the weekends that takes about an hour. My vasectomy reversal coordinator Kathy get several calls a day about scheduling either a reversal or a free consultation about arranging for a reversal. Many of our patient live a long way away and ask, “Can I speak to the doctor by phone?”

Kathy routinely says, “Can he call you between 5 and 6 tonight?”

The interested couple most commonly says, “Yes. Perfect.”

So last night Kathy gives me two people to call who have an interest in reversing their vasectomy. The second patient I call asked the question, “My wife and I got pregnant very quickly. I mean one the first try. Does this mean that we’ll get pregnant just as quickly after the reversal?”

Good question and very similar to this common question, “Will the reversal surgery be like the vasectomy?”

Regarding the latter, the reversal takes approximately two and half hours, a vasectomy less than 15 minutes. So no a vasectomy is not like a reversal.

Regarding the former question: the issue is not that you and your partner are very fertile, the success of the reversal depends on the experience of the surgeon and the time interval since the vasectomy.

The perfect scenario? A short time since the vasectomy and a urologist who does reversals microscopically often. It does not hurt that the wife was fertile, that is good. For the male however the production of good sperm suitable for pregnancy decrease as time elapses since the vasectomy.

It was a good question and I hope this helps you understand the nuances of a microscopic vasectomy reversal. You might check out this internal site link.

Success rates.

Reversal consults are free. Leave a number or email and we’ll schedule an in office consultation or Dr. McHugh will call you while on his walk!

Vasovasostomy vs. Vasoepididymostomy-Nuance #1

Dr. McHugh Ga Vasectomy Reversal microscope

Georgia Vasectomy Reversal | John McHugh M.D.

Many institutions recommend a vasoepdidymostomy if no sperm are seen in the fluid of the transected vas deferens at the time of the reversal. The article below begs to differ.

Urology – November 30, 2006 – Vol. 22 – No. 04

Vasovasostomy can and should be performed when only sperm parts are noted intraoperatively in the transected vas.

Article Reviewed: Outcomes for Vasovasostomy Performed When Only Sperm Parts Are Present in the Vasal Fluid. Kolettis PN, Burns JR, et al: J Androl; 2006; 27 (July/August): 565-567.

Outcomes for Vasovasostomy Performed When Only Sperm Parts Are Present in the Vasal Fluid.

Kolettis PN, Burns JR, et al:
J Androl; 2006; 27 (July/August): 565-567

Objective: To determine vasovasostomy outcomes in instances in which only sperm parts are present intraoperatively in the vasal fluid, rather than in full sperm. Design: Retrospective review of outcomes from 3 institutions with experienced male reproductive microsurgeons for men undergoing vasovasostomy in cases where only sperm parts were noted in fluid from the transected vas.Participants: 34 men who underwent bilateral (n=31) or unilateral (n=3) vasovasostomy. Methods: Men who were identified with sperm parts (sperm heads or sperm with partial tails) in the vasal fluid bilaterally or sperm parts on 1 side with intravasal azoospermia on the contralateral side when the vas was transected during vasovasostomy were included in the study. Microsurgical vasovasostomy was performed using either a modified 1-layer technique or a formal 2-layer technique. Results: The overall patency rate was 76% (26 of 34 men), and the pregnancy rate was 35% (7 of 20). Analyzing 8 procedures that did not result in sperm in the ejaculate, 2 had only an occasional sperm head bilaterally from the transected vasa, and 1 had observed an occasional sperm head on 1 side and contralateral intravasal azoospermia. Excluding these 2 cases, the patency rate was 84% (26 of 31). Conclusions: These results are similar to or better than those of epididymovasostomy outcomes, and argue that vasovasostomy should be performed in cases where only sperm parts are noted intraoperatively in the transected vas. Reviewer’s Comments: Mounting evidence supports that vasovasostomy can and should be performed when only sperm parts or even clear fluid is noted intraoperatively in the transected vas.

Getting a vasectomy increases sexual intercourse…true or false?

Over the years men have told me they were having a vasectomy because their wife told them that, “I’ll want to have sex more if I don’t have to worry about getting pregnant.” One such patient, a neighbor, stopped me in my drive way three months after his vasectomy to tell me,  “She lied!”

Vasectomy May Lead to Increased Sexual Intercourse Frequency 

Urology – April 30, 2016 – Vol. 34 – No. 1

Vasectomy is not associated with decreased frequency of sexual intercourse.

Article Reviewed: Relationship Between Vasectomy and Sexual Frequency. Guo DP, Lamberts RW, Eisenberg ML: J Sex Med; 2015;12 (September): 1905-1910.

Background: Men often report the concern that having a vasectomy will impair their future sexual function.

Objective: To determine in an objective and quantifiable manner if vasectomy leads to a decrease in sexual frequency.

Design: The authors analyzed data from the National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG), which is a large survey of American households.

Methods: Data were extracted from 2 cycles of the NSFG (2002 and 2006-2008) and analyzed. Men were included if they were previously sexually active and were aged >25 years. Female partners were also surveyed in the NSFG and were included if they were between 25 and 45 years of age. Sexual frequency was compared between men (or male partners of female respondents) who had a vasectomy and those who did not. The database captured sexual intercourse frequency over the preceding 4 weeks.

Results: A total of 5838 men met inclusion criteria, with 353 of these having a previous vasectomy. Men who had a vasectomy engaged in intercourse at a mean rate of 5.9 times per month compared to 4.9 times in men who had not had a vasectomy (P =0.0004). Additionally, men who had a vasectomy were less likely to have not engaged in any sexual intercourse in the preceding month. In the survey of female partners, 5211 women responded regarding their male partners, and 670 partners had a previous vasectomy. Again, men with a previous vasectomy had a higher frequency of sexual intercourse during the previous month (6.3 vs 6.0), although this difference was not statistically different (P =0.1341).

Conclusions: Vasectomy does not appear to negatively influence sexual frequency.

Reviewer’s Comments: The more invasive tubal ligation still outnumbers vasectomy among the options for permanent sterilization for couples. The rationale for this involves speculation, but male partner anxiety surrounding issues of sexual function have been proposed and are certainly evident when counseling males before vasectomy. Previous reports have investigated if vasectomy has any effect on sexual function and satisfaction, with most finding minimal to no effect on sexual function. In fact, some reports have demonstrated improved sexual function with improved sexual satisfaction, likely due to the loss of anxiety about unwanted pregnancy. The authors of this article demonstrate through objective survey results that sexual frequency does not decrease and may increase with vasectomy. While no explanation can be extracted from these data, the results are encouraging and can certainly be mentioned while counseling men before vasectomy.(Reviewer–Charles Welliver, MD).

Who’d a thought? Heart healthy diets improve sperm health.

Heart-Healthy Foods With Lower Saturated Fat Equals Sperm Health

Urology – May 30, 2013 – Vol. 30 – No. 5

Ongoing indirect evidence suggests that heart-healthy diets are associated with the potential to improve sperm parameters.

Article Reviewed: High Dietary Intake of Saturated Fat Is Associated With Reduced Semen Quality Among 701 Young Danish Men From the General Population. Jensen TK, Heitmann BL, et al: Am J Clin Nutr; 2013;97 (February): 411-418.

Background: Saturated fat consumption has been correlated with some cancers and cardiovascular disease. Yet, whether saturated fat is correlated with abnormal sperm parameters needs more research.

Objective: To determine the impact of dietary fat on semen parameters among 701 young Danish men without azoospermia.

Design/Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of men recruited from their military fitness exam (2008 to 2010). Three-month recall-validated 136-item food frequency questionnaire, single semen sample, and physical examination were conducted for each participant. Median age was 19 years and median body mass index (BMI) was 22.5.

Results: Men with a high intake of saturated fat had lower total sperm counts. Men in the highest quartile of saturated fat intake had a 38% significantly lower concentration and a 41% significantly lower total sperm count compared to men in the lowest quartile. There were no other significant correlations found between semen parameters and other forms of dietary fat intake.

Conclusions: Diet may be a partial explanation for the reported greater abnormalities observed in sperm counts from other studies of the general population. Reducing the intake of saturated fat may improve reproductive and overall health parameters.

Reviewer’s Comments: This is part of a continuing series of studies that suggest you are what you consume in your diet regarding certain areas of health and – to some extent – fertility. Second, this is a cross-sectional study, whether it is a semen sample or dietary questionnaire is not level 1 evidence. In fact, the correlation between food frequency questionnaires and reality is still far apart. I do not remember what I ate yesterday, let alone months ago. Yet, the beauty of a large questionnaire and this study is that these snapshots might reveal a hidden general pattern or overall behavior that can provide some answers. I found it interesting that a higher percentage of men with a very low BMI were more likely to consume more saturated fat (seems counterintuitive, right?). Yet, men consuming more saturated fat were slightly more likely to smoke, drink more alcohol, report a sexually transmitted disease, consume more overall calories, eat more omega-6 fatty acids, and probably had less muscle mass. And, although the authors did adjust for most of these parameters in their study – which they believe makes the theory of saturated fat being a marker of unhealthy overall behavior less likely – I disagree (>30% of the saturated fat was coming from cheese and dairy products). There is a pattern of behavior to suggest a less healthy lifestyle in those who consume more saturated fat, which is similar to what has been found in many prostate cancer studies and cardiovascular reviews.(Reviewer–Mark Moyad, MD, MPH).

 

Vasectomy Reversal Complications

168693

Although vasectomy reversal complications are rare, any surgery carries some degree of risk. Because vasectomy reversal is a longer and more complicated procedure than an original vasectomy, it has a greater chance of side effects.

In spite of the low risk factor, it is important to be aware of the potential complications associated with a vasectomy reversal. Before undergoing the surgery, ask a physician to go over these. Read More…
