Patient's question:
I have a colleague who hasn't come to work for a long time recently. After asking others, I found out that he has been sick recently. It seems to be epididymitis. What are the triggers that cause epididymal malformation?Doctor's answer:
Most varicoceles are congenital and may be related to endocrine dysfunction during embryonic growth and development. For example, testosterone levels may be abnormal. The mesonephric tubules and mesonephric ducts may fail to develop or develop incompletely. It is recommended to check sperm quality. If the sperm quality is normal, it will not affect fertility and does not require treatment. If the sperm quality is poor, it is necessary to seek professional and reputable medical treatment promptly. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination, and attention should be paid to quitting smoking and drinking, as well as maintaining personal hygiene.
