A member asked:
Husband has j pouch, no small intestine, ilyostomy, should he check for sperm count? we are ttc. or not affected?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
J pouch: While having a j pouch has been shown to affect fertility in women, it should not be a problem for your husband. It should be noted that there is a slightly increased rate of impotence and ejaculatory dysfunction after pouch surgery.
