[epilepsy] Re: Infertility problems due to Eplepsy and Depakote

 

My infertility (or what ever you call it for Men) is because I was sexually
fixed at age 14. Since I was a Teenager, they didn't need my consent.
Instead, my parents would be out in the hall, talking to the doctor about
what he feels would be best, and signing the papers.

I know that in today's procedures, when a man gets "fixed", the tubes get
lifted up and kinked (like a kink in a garden hose), then they get tied up
to keep them in that position. Easy to reverse when the guy grows up and
seriously wants to have kids.

When I had it done though, it was evidently more intense, as my Urologist
told me I can't be reconnected as the entire tube is missing. It got
amputated in other words. Yet I've been told by a few doctors...that's how
it was done back in the 70's and 80's, particularly on people with Brain
Disorders.

So no chance of me ever having kids, either!
