Patient's question:
How is varicocele treated? What are the reasons for varicocele in men? How did I get this disease? I used to have sexual activity, but then it stopped. But why is that? I haven't been divorced for long, and it was discovered during a thorough examination at work. Now what should I do?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele can lead to an increase in testicular temperature. The normal testicular temperature in healthy individuals is 0.℃ on the left and 0.8℃ on the right. However, in patients with varicocele, the disruption of venous drainage causes the testicular temperature to be 0.6-0.8℃ higher than the normal temperature, which can interfere with sperm development.However, the treatment cycle is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and refrain from smoking and drinking beer.
