New vasectomy procedure to help possible reversal

Regarding reversal vasectomy, I think it depends on how the initial surgery is done.

Contrary to popular belief, the majority of doctors are not interested in permanently mutilating their patients. Many urologists are not even cutting the vas deferens these days. Just as many gynecologists are not cutting and cauterizing the Fallopian tubes - urologists are just doubling the tube or vas over and tying it off with a tiny clip, rubber band, or even just a few turns of non-dissolving suture material. I believe they are doing this because of increasing demands for reversals, as a twist-and-tie is easier to reverse than a cut-and-cauterize, but my guess is that it probably has a somewhat higher failure rate than a really thorough cut job.

I do remember my folks talking after my dad had his vasectomy that many, many "vasectomy failures" were because the little buggers hadn't been all flushed out of the system yet before people ditched the birth control. Apparently having lots of (protected) sex and masturbating as much as possible can speed this process up.

Well, I would seriously doubt it, considering that if it consistently did so they probably would not use that procedure. I would guess that the newer technique probably went through at least one clinical trial that indicated minimal adverse effects before it was circulated to the general medical population.
