Answer:
Dear
Sangram Sahu,
A vasectomy
prevents the release of sperm when a man ejaculates.
When
the vasectomy is complete, sperm can no longer exit the body through
the penis.
Vasectomy
prevents sperm from mixing with semen by blocking the sperm ducts.
After
vasectomy, sperm continue to be produced.
The testicles
continue to produce sperm, but they are broken down and absorbed by
the body.
Vasectomy
only stops the sperm, not the semen.
Thirty
percent of the semen is produced and released by the prostate.
Normal
ejaculate volumes range between 2 and 5 cc’s.
Sperm
only represent a small fraction of the ejaculate.
Seminal
vesicles, Cowper’s glands and urethral glands all contribute
to the ejaculate.
These
glands are not affected after a vasectomy.
The seminal
vesicles and prostate gland produce a whitish fluid called seminal
fluid, which mixes with sperm to form semen.
The seminal
fluid is what carries the sperm.
Seminal
fluid is comprised of secretions produced by the prostate
gland, Cowper’s gland and the seminal vesicles.
All three
combine to produce various types of alkaline fluids.
Fluid
from the prostate gland account for about 30% of seminal fluid.
The seminal
vesicles produce about 60% of the seminal fluids.
