Patient's question:
I'm very curious to know what are the treatment methods for varicocele? I'm very curious to know what are the treatment methods for varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele can lead to male infertility through various different pathways, not only affecting the reoccurrence of sperm but also causing a decline in sperm vitality. Therefore, patients with severe varicocele still need to consider active treatment. For mild varicocele or those accompanied by neurasthenia, measures such as reporting the scrotum and applying cold compresses are recommended. For more severe varicocele, patients with a sperm count consistently below 20 million for three consecutive times, or those with testicular atrophy; where the varicose veins disappear when lying flat, the varicocelectomy with high ligation of the internal spermatic vein is a viable option.
