Patient's question:
I am 35 years old this year. A few months ago, I developed epididymitis, so the doctor removed both of my epididymides. Actually, I haven't had children yet, and I'm very worried that I won't be able to have children after the removal. Hello, can I still get pregnant after having both epididymides removed?Doctor's answer:
The bilateral epididymides have been removed. This condition can still allow for fertility, as the testicles produce sperm, which then pass through the fallopian tubes to exit the body. The epididymis is merely a storage structure. If the testicles are removed, it would be impossible to have children. So, you don’t need to worry about your situation. After the surgery, avoid spicy foods like chili peppers and other irritating foods. Rest more and avoid overexertion. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
