Patient's question:
How is the treatment for epididymal malformation? Now I'm constantly overthinking, making this condition seem very frightening to me because I don't understand this disease at all. I feel anxious and can't eat or sleep. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Epididymal malformations include structural abnormalities such as epididymal agenesis, segmental self-locking, and epididymal cysts. If the patient's testicular spermatogenesis function is normal, assisted perinatal treatment can be performed. For patients with cryptorchidism due to epididymal malformations, orchiopexy should be performed promptly. The condition of the epididymis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is essential to seek medical attention immediately at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained.
