Immediately After Your Vasectomy Reversal Surgery in NYC
Immediately after the procedure, patients stay in the recovery room briefly until they feel up to traveling. You will need to have someone ready and waiting to assist you leaving the surgery center. Dr. Larish recommends for patients to avoid driving for 48 hours after a vasectomy reversal.
If rubber drains are placed during the surgery, patients will return the next day to have them removed from their scrotum. Otherwise, the first appointment after the procedure should be scheduled in two weeks.
