Surgical Sperm Extraction

[TeenMummy]

Hey
Has annoying any experience in having surgical super external. Our DS soon to be 18 is having this done when COVID is over and we can't find any information on it at all. Well we can but not in terms of others having it done.

TIA xx

DH had this done prior to ICSI for us to have DS.
Small incision in his scrotum, he had his under local as he has chest issues so they didn’t want him to have GA, but I believe that was unusual. As you would imagine he was pretty tender and had 3/4 days off work. He did actually end up having an infection at the incision site but antibiotics sorted it quickly. Dissolvable sutures so they didn’t need removing.

It’s not all done via an incision though.
