Can varicocele be treated?

Patient's question:

I've been preparing to have a child for about half a year, but my partner hasn't shown any reaction. After checking, I found out that I have varicocele, which has already affected fertility. Can varicocele be treated?

Doctor's answer:

The hazards of male varicocele are based on the potential to increase semen quality. Bilateral varicocele may lead to infertility. If you are unmarried and have not yet had children, you can ignore it. If you are married and your semen quality has improved, surgical treatment is recommended. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it will affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overwork in daily life, pay attention to personal hygiene. Wish you a speedy recovery.
