    Depends on what was done. If no reconstruction made of the vas deferens, then can be active, including masturbation and sex immediately or within days.

    Each surgeon has their own recommendations.

    Dear Dr. Towfigh,
    I have a questions in regards to the topic of fertility in which I relates to sex and masturbation after mesh removal surgery. How long after abdominal mesh removal do you tell your patients that it is ok to engage in sex or masturbation? Can it effect healing at all?
