Patient's question:
After we got married, we have never been able to get pregnant. We both want children, but we just can't get pregnant. Now we are very anxious. The hospital has thoroughly checked and found that my vas deferens is blocked. Please ask: How did I get the blocked vas deferens?Doctor's answer:
Epididymal obstruction is common:1. Ejaculation abnormalities: Due to inflammation, trauma, or tumors inhibiting the epididymis, patients may experience weakened sexual climax, weak ejaculation, or painful ejaculation. This is a gradual process, and with careful observation, it can be detected early.
2. Primary infertility: Common in men with congenital abnormalities in the development of the epididymis. These individuals engage in normal sexual life after marriage but are unable to conceive. Examples include congenital underdevelopment or malformation of the epididymis, lack of connection with the epididymis, often accompanied by underdevelopment of the seminal vesicles, leading to low seminal volume and no sperm.
3. Epididymal nodules: In the later stages of epididymal obstruction, experienced doctors can detect nodules, thickening, beaded changes, or absence of the epididymis or seminal vesicles during a physical examination.
