How should varicocele be treated?

Patient's question:

When I was taking a shower, I noticed that one of my testicles is larger than the other, and it seems to be lower on one side. When I touched it, I felt that the veins were very prominent, almost like earthworms coiled inside the testicle. Please ask: How should varicocele be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Which method is better for treating varicocele? Male varicocele can easily interfere with sperm vitality and second-order neuron male infertility. Generally, after the recurrence of varicocele, sperm should not be significantly affected in the short term, but over time, it will affect sperm quality. There are many treatment methods for varicocele. The general surgical method involves ligating the entire spermatic vein. In the spermatic artery-preserving varicocele surgery, the spermatic artery is freed and preserved. It is recommended that you seek treatment in a professional hospital to prevent missing the best treatment window. Since everyone's physical condition is different, the treatment methods used are also different.
