can someone who has suffered from torsion get a child?

Answer 1

It depends on if the torsion was relieved before the testicle died or was irreparably injured due to the loss of blood supply and oxygen. Usually if the surgery occurs within 6 hours of the blood supply being cut off, there is not a big problem with fertility afterwards. If the testicle is dead, it would have to be removed. That would cut your sperm production total down, but as long as there was one healthy testicle on the other side you could still become a father. There have been plenty of men with low sperm counts, even with one testicle, who have done so. Presuming you have one healthy testicle on full production, although you would have a lower total sperm count, you would still produce enough to do the job. It might not happen the first few times, but eventually the odds are in your favor. It only takes one sperm, after all, to make you a father. If you have had this type injury, your physician can do a sperm count after recovery and tell you how you fare in the total population count, as well as how good the odds are in your particular case.

Answer 2

Since torsion is the twisting of the spermatic cord (testicular torsion) or twisting of the ovaries (ovarian torsion), the twisting of these tissues cuts off blood supply to nearby tissue, decrease blood flow to the testes/ovary, essentially strangling them of oxygen and nutrients and can cause permanent damage -

Torsion requires immediate intervention. The severity of the torsion depends on if the testicle or ovary is partially or completely twisted. The more twisted, the more urgent the intervention should be. To minimize long-term problems, intervention is usually required within six hours of symptoms, to preserve function of the testicle or ovary which is to produce healthy sperms and egg cells which form a child.

Answer 3

In testicular torsion the spermatic cord that provides the blood supply to a testicle is twisted, cutting off the blood supply, often causing orchalgia. Prolonged testicular torsion will result in the death of the testicle and surrounding tissues.

as long as you dont have it on both...i suppose yes you can still have a child

Answer 4

wel i had torsion the first time bout 4 months ago and i didnt think it was nething in particular, just pain.... i hope my testicle hasnt died

Answer 5

It all depends on whether the testicle was removed or saved. If it was removed then the chances are lowered, but are still very good.
