Patient's question:
I have been married to my husband for several years, and we have never had children. The whole family is very anxious, especially my mother-in-law, who can't wait to bring up the topic of having children every day. My husband and I have both undergone thorough medical examinations. My husband was diagnosed with varicocele. Does masturbation cause varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Masturbation generally does not cause significant varicocele. If varicocele is detected during a careful examination, medications such as Masilin can be taken under the guidance of a doctor for treatment. It is important to pay attention to regulation and develop good habits. Avoid prolonged sitting, standing, or walking for long periods. Eat more easily digestible foods. Women who are not pregnant can also undergo a color Doppler ultrasound and hormone six-item test. The condition of varicocele tends to recur, requiring long-term medication treatment. For male patients, it is essential to seek medical attention immediately at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, maintain personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
