I had a vasectomy in 1995. I've been experiencing memory loss for some years now. I want to reverse the vasectomy. Would this help?

There is no evidence that I’m aware of that indicates any benefit to your memory situation

Sorry to say, a vasectomy would not be the cause of the memory loss and so a vasectomy reversal would not be helpful to you. Going down that path will not have a positive effect on short-term memory.

No I don't think it will help. I am sure there is a study somewhere that will say it is related, but this would be rare. Also, there is a chance that the reversal won't work and then you've gone to the expense and inconvenience for something that may have not helped in the first place. "Common things occur commonly" so I'd start with an evaluation by your family doctor who may refer you to a neurologist.
