A member asked:
Can bacteria from urethra spread to vas deferens and infect it, resulting in permanent scars and blockage in vas deferen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sort of: Chlamydia can travel from the urethra to the vas to the epididymis and cause infection there and cause infertility by damaging the epididymis which is where sperm is stored prior to ejaculation.
