If a male has a groin hernia can he still have kids?

It depends where the hernia is, but generally it isn’t reason of infertility.\nMale Fertility depends by sperm.\nSo, independently from the hernia, if reproductive system (Prostate, testicle, etc.) still is functional and sane, then there will be no problem

Forever. Dude you just had your manhood sliced ... you can't ever recover from that. In fact have a vasectomy practically makes you a woman. It's true. Men can produce sperm, you know who can't? Women - and guys who've had a vasectomy.

No.\n\nThey are potentially life threatening. The infection probably was caused by the hernia in the first place and not the repair.

Wholeheartedly yes!  I recently got a vasectomy (November) and I recommend it with total conviction.  I assume that you don't want any more children and neither does your girlfriend, but if she does, then you need to talk about bigger things!  If you are both cool with no kids then snip-snip is exactly what you need.  I have four children (hence the vasectomy), am 31 and am married to a woman age 28.  My urologist was excellent and the procedure was fast, easy and nearly painless (the Valium helped).  Recovery was quick too.

I have read that the vas defrens are not normal in men with cystic fibrosis. I know women with the disease can get pregnant, but don't know any men who have the illness.

You really need to see someone..Try a free clinic or a county hospital..It could be nothing or it could be twenty other things.. One possibility is a torsion..Which could cause sterilization in some young men and boys..Don't wait get in to see someone..

I went through this with my son when he was almost four.  His left testicle would swell up and then go down again.  He never complained of pain.  It did this on and off for a few weeks and then we took him to an urologist.  He had what is called an inguinal hernia.  He had an opening between the abdomen and the scrotal sack which never comp. closed leaving a path for the testicle to go back and forth between the sack and the abdomen.  The doc put him under general ansth. and closed the opening with a small incision.  He also stitched the testicle to the sack (I know sounds terrible doesn't it) so It would not move and heal fixed where it is suppose to.  My son is now nine and you can barely see the scar, he really does not remember the procedure.  As for pain, the doc told us to keep him quiet for a day, nothing strenuous, yeah right.  He was ready to go as soon as we got home from the day surgery place.  It is a very simple procedure, of course with some risks as they place them under general ansth, but he is now fine and has no ill effects from the surgery.  Have your doc check it out, don't wait, the earlier they can fix the problem, the less likely that your child will remember it.

No such thing as hernia in the testicles.  Hernias are ruptures in the abdominal wall and have nothing to do with the testicles.

I date a guy that had only one testicle. You should not allow this to bother you. Have surgery for what reason, not unless the other one is stuck inside of your stomach or something. God bless*

that depends on the type of workout you're into. if you're goin to carry alot of weight and/or you're into a rough and heavy type of workout, ofcourse you have to wear and that is not to prevent water from your testicles, thats to prevent hernia. when men sweats water come out of his body, not goin in..

A hernia is a rupturing of a thin wall supporting the underneath of your intestines. Getting hit with a baseball probably won't give you a hernia but might result in a urinary tract infection which will mask itself as a hernia. Your testicles will enlarge and may even turn black.(It happened to me.) Your sperm and your urine run along the same path known as the urinary tract. When there is a break in the thin wall(again, another thin wall), the urine and sperm mix together and cause swelling. There is medication available but could cause allergic reaction. Consult an urologist in your area. The doctor will need to give you a prostate exam to be sure. Be forewarned. The exam is not pleasant but necessary.

my hubby suffered from acid reflux hiatal hernia for nine years, being jerked round with doctors with well lets try this diet, or lets try this medication, or lets try this combination of medicine. \ni had seen on tv about a 12 year old boy who suffered from the same condition as hubby. \nwell to make a long story short, hubby had surgery in april of this year to correct a hernia. and has had no ill effects since. hes been enjoying food again such as regular soda, chocolate, and spicy foods\nso my suggestion to you is:\ngo ...no RUN to your doctor and tell him youd like to get this problem taken care of once and for all. because if things got as bad as they did with hubby nothing BUT surgery will help you\n\nGOODLUCK, and let me know what happens if you dont mind

Yep, born in one. Three weeks later back for a double hernia operation, common in males at that age. Not more than a month old and I was there two times.   ;)

Just a clarification-There arent any "true" hermaphrodites in humans-That would indicate that they could both become pregnant *and* impregnate another.  Humans sometimes can have partial external genitalia of both male and female, but do not have both functional testes and functional ovaries.\nAny medical school library would have a great deal of information on this.

yes you can, some people even have peroids while they are pregant, which shouldnt happen but has.

Interesting...\nDon't completely rule out pregnancy.  Sometimes men have double vas deferens that the docs don't see, and don't cut - so there's still a tube there for the spermies to travel through.  Sometimes, the tubes will grow back together also.

There is only one kind of vasectomy i.ecuttig and  tying the  spermatic cord  through which the sperms travel on both sides, by a very very minor operation. If necessary the cut tubes could be joined by the same method again if the person wants. . It is commonly done. It is neither  harmful nor dangerous and no untoward effects at all. He wiil be normal even after that physically and sexually.  It is just like an outpatient treatment.  Let him have it.  You need not have any anxiety. Usually vasectomy is done as a family planning programme. So let him go ahead and reverse what has been already done. Encourage him . Good luck.
