  Welcome to Point of Origin Acupuncture

In order to treat a woman for infertility or any other condition related to the reproductive system, your TCM practitioner must have a thorough understanding of anatomy, physiology, biochemistry and the myriad of events that occur during the complex process known as the menstrual cycle, along with how they correlate in terms of Qi ("chee"), Blood, Yin and Yang.

In addition, TCM can have a profound impact on a person's general sense of health and well being.

Adult & Pediatric Urology Care

Once the patient has signed the consent form and has been brought into the procedure room, their scrotal area will be shaved. Some urologists will have the patient shave this area at home. The area will then be washed with an antiseptic solution. Local anesthesia will be injected to numb the area but the patient will be aware of touch, tension and movement during the procedure. However, the local anesthetic should eliminate any sharp pain. The patient is awake during the procedure so, if necessary, they can let the urologist know if they are experiencing pain so more local anesthesia can be given.

With a conventional vasectomy, a urologist makes one or two small cuts in the skin of the scrotum. The vas deferens is cut, and a small piece may be removed leaving a short gap between the two remaining ends. Next, the urologist ties the cut ends with suture material and closes up the scrotal incision with dissolvable stitches. The entire procedure is then repeated on the other side.

In the immediate postoperative period there is the risk of bleeding into the scrotum. If the patient notices a significant increase in the size of their scrotum or significant scrotal discomfort, they should contact their urologist immediately. A patient experiencing fever, scrotal redness or tenderness should also be evaluated by the surgeon as this may indicate an infection. Discomfort is usually minimal and should respond to mild analgesics. More severe pain may indicate infection or other complications. Patients will often complain of mild lower abdominal discomfort similar to what one would experience from getting hit in the genitalia. A benign lump or granuloma, may develop because there is a leakage of sperm from the cut end of the vas into the scrotal tissues. It may occasionally be painful or sensitive to touch or pressure. Post-vasectomy pain syndrome is a chronic pain syndrome that follows vasectomy. The cause of this syndrome and its incidence are unclear. It is generally treated with anti-inflammatory agents. Occasionally, patients will elect to undergo vasectomy reversal in an attempt to alleviate this syndrome. Unfortunately, the response to surgical intervention is unpredictable. Lately, there has been some debate as to whether vasectomies predispose a man to any future health problems. However, there is no conclusive evidence that men who have undergone a vasectomy have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, prostate cancer, testicular cancer or other health problems.
