How to Increase Fertility After Vasectomy Reversal

After a vasectomy reversal, the male patient will have to do a little leg work to increase their fertility back to levels pre-vasectomy. The process of increasing fertility can be done naturally with the right diet and a little bit of exercise.

Instructions

• 1

  Eat a healthy and balanced diet. This should include plenty of vegetables and fruits along with whole foods. For instance, replace your standard white bread with whole grain bread and your chocolate bar at lunch with an apple. A low-fat high-protein diet is a great way to increase fertility after the reversal. If you are going to eat fatty foods, choose "healthy fats" over your standard burger joint fare.

• 2

  Exercise at a steady rate. As your body begins to sweat during exercise, it begins to detoxify; therefore, your natural processes can increase in efficacy. Start with slow and steady exercises and increase your workouts as you feel more comfortable. Start with a simple walk each day and build up to swimming, cycling or other forms of harder exercises.

• 3

  Avoid excessive heat to the testicular area. Wear loose-fitting boxers instead of boxer briefs and avoid placing a laptop directly on your lap while you type. The less heat to the testicles, the better production you will witness.

• 4

  Stop smoking and avoid smoke-filled areas. Smoking has been directly linked to a loss of sperm function. Avoid anabolic steroids (this is a given) along with large amounts of alcohol and any other recreational drugs.

• 5

  Wait. It can take up to three months for sperm levels to begin operating at close to typical levels. Sometimes the best option is patience; after a Vasectomy reversal, you may simply need to wait three to six months for your full fertility levels to begin again.
