Hi Mothergoose,

We are in the same position as you, my husband has had a vas, but both of us have no fertility problems..well except age on my behalf

We are currently just about to start our 2nd cycle with IVF, first one was cancelled due to poor response.
Our decision to try IVF first and see how we go. We figure we have a 30% chance there, and if that doesn't work we can look at reversal, of which we have a 30% there too...working on 60%..in theory ..

the main reason we decided on IVF was the time factor, it can take up to 18 months for sperm to improve in enough numbers and strength to create a pregnancy, which for us wasn't an option...*tick tick tick* ...although I am struggling with the invasiveness of IVF, I think for us it was the best decision due to my age.

I guess there is no quick fix, and only wish that we had of stored some of DH's sperm before the decision of a vas.

I guess either way its now a bit of an emotional roller coaster..has it worked , will it work..why didnt it work..

Good luck on your journey...
