Patient's question:
I have been married to my wife for five years. Previously, because I was quite busy with work, I never really thought about having a baby. Our sex life was also quite natural, and we never intentionally took any measures for breastfeeding. However, after five years, we still haven't gotten pregnant. Our family members found it quite strange and insisted that we get a thorough medical check-up. It was discovered that my husband has an epididymal malformation, specifically an epididymal head cyst. What should we do?Doctor's answer:
Epididymal malformation may be related to endocrine dysfunction during embryonic growth and development. When the epididymal ducts are, it can lead to a significant shortening of the epididymis and the recurrence of a long loop-shaped epididymal malformation. For patients with epididymal issues, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
