Patient's question:
I have been married to my wife for many years, and we have not used any contraception, but we have never been able to get pregnant. After checking the hospital, we found out. Please ask what methods are effective for treating varicocele.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, varicocele is caused by an excessively large angle of venous drainage from the spermatic vein into the renal vein, especially when the left spermatic vein almost drains at a right angle. Therefore, prolonged standing or walking can lead to poor blood flow and congestion, resulting in varicocele. Since varicocele is due to a problem with the blood vessels themselves, medication often has little effect. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a detailed ultrasound examination of the spermatic vein to determine the severity of the varicocele. If the varicocele is severe and accompanied by abnormal semen, surgical treatment will be necessary. In addition to timely treatment for male reproductive diseases, patients should also pay attention to their diet, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities.
