Can a hernia operation lead to impotence?
Q: I am 40 years old and married with one child. I am going to have a hernia operation. I heard that hernia operation can lead to impotence. Is this true? There are different types of hernia. In my case the hernia is right below my abdomen.
A:I am sorry, but you have heard wrongly. Hernia operation does not lead to impotence. If you have an inguinal hernia, you must undergo surgery.
