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 married for long, and it was discovered during a thorough examination at work. Now what should I do? Can it be cured?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele causes an increase in testicular temperature. The normal testicular temperature in healthy individuals is 32.2°C on the left and 31.8°C on the right. However, in patients with varicocele, the disruption of venous drainage leads to a testicular temperature that is 0.6-0.8°C higher than the normal temperature, which can interfere with sperm development. Minimally invasive high ligation of varicocele can be considered as a treatment option. It is recommended to consult a specialist in perinatal medicine and seek medical advice for diagnosis. We sincerely wish you a speedy recovery. Varicocele is a condition that tends to recur, requiring long-term oral medication.
