What medications and/or treatments are used for ejaculatory duct obstruction?

Medical procedures used to treat EDO include:

• Transurethral resection of the ejaculatory ducts (TURED): This refers to cutting out whatever is blocking the duct, such as cysts.
• Seminal vesiculoscopy: This is another minimally invasive procedure that uses a small telescope to enter your prostate to reach and remove the duct blockage.

Surgeons may sometimes combine the two procedures. You’ll have to take antibiotics to help prevent infection in either case.

Your provider may suggest that you freeze semen before you have these types of procedures since the treatments aren’t always successful.
