The Fertilization Process

If you are undergoing a vasectomy reversal in the hopes of starting a family, you may be curious about the fertilization process that has to occur before your partner becomes pregnant. This video examines the process in detail.

For fertilization to occur, the ovaries in the female must release an egg that enters the Fallopian tubes. After ejaculation, millions of sperm are released, but only a few hundred will make their way to the Fallopian tube containing the egg. When a sperm manages to enter the egg, fertilization occurs and the genetic materials are combined.

The Center for Vasectomy Reversal is committed to helping our patients overcome male infertility caused by vasectomy with vasectomy reversals in Sarasota. To find out if you are a candidate, make an appointment with Dr. Green by calling (941) 894-6428.
