Infertility is a general term for a type of disease that can affect natural fertility in humans. This type of disease is very common and can affect both men and women. For women, fallopian tube disease has always been a major factor affecting pregnancy, but few people know that male vas deferens can also have problems. Vascular stenosis is such a problem, so will it affect normal male fertility? Can narrow vas deferens be cured?

1、 Etiology of vas deferens stenosis

Vascular stenosis has congenital malformation factors, such as the absence of the head, body, and tail of the epididymis, partial or complete absence of the vas deferens, disconnection of the vas deferens from the epididymis, and underdevelopment of the epididymis, vas deferens, or seminal vesicles. Reproductive system infections: such as epididymitis, prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, or epididymal vas deferens tuberculosis., Causing obstruction of the vas deferens, especially at the junction of the epididymis and vas deferens; Tumors: such as epididymal tumors, seminal vesicle tumors, prostate tumors, etc., Both can cause obstruction of the vas deferens. Men need to gently squeeze their index finger and thumb to examine the epididymal head, paying attention to whether there is epididymal sclerosis or stasis caused by obstruction of the vas deferens. If such signs are found, it is necessary to go to the hospital as soon as possible to have a vas deferens angiography to understand the patency of vas deferens obstruction. Common treatment methods for vas deferens obstruction include anti infection and ejaculatory duct edema caused by reproductive tract infections. Generally, surgery is not required. After anti infection and physical therapy, inflammation and edema are controlled, and the reproductive tract can be restored to patency.

2、 Can narrow vas deferens affect fertility?

Male vas deferens obstruction, if belonging to unilateral vas deferens obstruction, may not affect fertility or have a relatively small impact on fertility. If the bilateral vas deferens are blocked, it can lead to male infertility. It is necessary to go to the hospital for relevant examinations in a timely manner to make a clear diagnosis. It is recommended to go to the hospital for semen analysis to determine if there are any sperm in the semen. It is recommended to conduct more than three semen analyses to determine if there are any sperm. Then, a testicular biopsy can be performed again to determine if the testicular spermatogenic function is normal. If the testicular spermatogenesis function is normal, it is recommended to undergo a vas deferens seminal vesiculography to clarify the obstruction of the vas deferens.

3、 Can narrow vas deferens be cured?

Vascular stenosis can be cured, but medication cannot cure it. It can only be cured through surgery. It is often caused by narrowing between the epididymis and vas deferens, or blockage caused by chronic inflammatory hyperplasia between the vas deferens. Narrow segments can be surgically removed and anastomosed again to achieve patency. The success rate of traditional surgery is low. At present, the success rate is relatively high, mainly divided into vasectomy and epididymal vasectomy. After a month, you can recheck your semen to see if there are any sperm. Mild to moderate zinc supplementation, vitamins and trace elements supplementation in diet can be done through male surgical examination in a regular hospital to clarify the condition of vas deferens stenosis for further treatment.

As a reproductive system disease that definitely affects fertility, vas deferens stenosis can be caused by congenital factors, as well as acquired infections and other factors. So if you suffer from narrow vas deferens, you need to receive correct treatment under the doctor's advice, and also make some adjustments in your personal life, otherwise it is difficult to completely cure!
