Retrograde Ejaculation

What are the treatments for the condition?

Many men can be treated with medications that tighten up the bladder neck, such as ephedrine. If this is not successful, sperm can be recovered from the bladder following orgasm for artificial insemination or for in vitro fertilization. The bladder may need to be rinsed out before and after orgasm to recover good sperm.

What are the side effects of the treatments?

Some of the medications used to relax the bladder neck can cause arrhythmias, or irregular heartbeats.

What happens after treatment for the condition?

No after treatment or long term monitoring is necessary.
