Ejaculation After Vasectomy: Everything You Need to Know
You have questions about your sexual health after a vasectomy. Here are science-based answers about ejaculation, volume, and sensations.
You have questions about your sexual health after a vasectomy? This is completely normal.
Here are the answers to your most frequent questions:
- Will I still ejaculate?
Yes, absolutely. Vasectomy only blocks sperm, which accounts for only about 2 to 5% of the total ejaculate volume. - Will it change the sensation or orgasm?
No. The sensation, intensity of orgasm, and pleasure remain exactly the same. The nerves and blood vessels responsible for erection and ejaculation are not touched during the procedure. - Does the semen look different?
To the naked eye, there is no visible difference in color, texture, or quantity.
In summary, the only thing that changes is the absence of sperm under the microscope!
