Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband is 42 years old and is worried about getting a vasectomy. His major fears are the side effects it might have on him. He currently suffers from high blood pressure problems and feels this would worsen it. He also feels he would not be able to get an erection or have a normal sex life. Are these things he should worry about?
Having a vasectomy does not increase blood pressure or cause erection problems. The volume of semen will come down but otherwise he can have a normal sex life.
