A member asked:
I'm considering vasectomy but there have been reports of possible links between vasectomy and dementia (specifically ppa and ftd). a study says anti-sperm antibodies cause damage to the brain. how seriously should i take this? any possibility? thanks?

None of the CREDIBLE reports in medical literature relate vasectomy as a direct cause for any detrimental long term effects on the brain or any kind of cancer. PL do not believe everything you red on the net
