The fun continues…
I’ve posted a few times previously but to summarise - vasectomy Jan 2026 and micro reversal July 2026. All the usual reasons for reversal, sperm congestion, nerve pains (were fading with time tbf), depleted orgasm sensation, low testosterone etc etc.
Now day 30 and past week have been having on off sharp pulling, pinching, twisting pains up to 8/10 particularly from what I believe to be the reconnection site on the left testicle. Can feel some small pea sized lumps along the vas/cord. The pains are quite disabling and are stopping me from engaging in anything physical at all, basically house bound atm.
They shoot up the groin into the hips and sometimes lower back (which is sore anyway from inactivity).
I resumed ejaculation at day 20, have done several times since and while they’ve been pain free, seems logical it’s ignited a flare up.
Still early on here but it’s rather unsettling, anyone noticed anything similar post reversal?

To anybody who’s had a reversal mostly for PVPS, did you change how you let everything hang after the reversal and how did it go?
I am 13 days post reversal, lots of scar tissue removed from left side and lots of the oversized cremaster muscle had to be cut away. My surgeon has instructed me to let everything hang from the 2 week mark to help “retrain” the cremasters to function correctly again. I have been wearing compression underwear since the vasectomy 6 months ago, which held everything up against my body. Tried letting everything hang for a day a few months back, and this resulted in a horrible pain flare mostly in the cords that lasted a week. So I’m a little nervous about doing what the surgeon has suggested.

Have my triple layer reversal tomorrow for congestive PVPS, vas 6 months ago. It’s been a hell of a 6 months.
Any tips/ positive encouragement welcome for recovery. Happy to hear others experiences.
