It is not possible to generalize whether a hernia will affect fertility. Some of them may affect males and generally do not affect females. There are many common types of hernias, including inguinal hernias, hiatal hernias, and femoral hernias. 1. Men may affect fertility: inguinal hernia is due to the abdominal organs protruding outward through the inguinal canal, in which there is a spermatic cord in the inguinal canal. If the vas deferens is squeezed, or the trans-vas deferens is cut off in the course of the surgery, the transmission of sperms may be affected, which may affect the normal fertility. 2. Female hernia does not affect fertility: no matter which type of hernia, it usually does not affect the female reproductive organs, so female hernia will not affect fertility. If you have a hernia, you need to go to the hospital in time for examination and follow the doctor’s instructions according to the specific type of treatment.
