Patient's question:
Five years of dating, we finally got married last year, but until now, my wife hasn't gotten pregnant. Recently, she had a thorough medical check-up at the hospital and found that she is very healthy. Today, I also came to the hospital for a detailed examination, and the doctor said I have epididymal malformation. How can epididymal malformation be effectively prevented?Doctor's answer:
Your condition, with varicocele being primarily due to insufficient sexual performance, requires timely oral medication to enhance sperm production and an increase in the frequency of sexual activity. Symptomatic treatment should be administered to prevent frequent sexual activity from leading to epididymal congestion and inflammation, which can result in poor erectile function and impaired sperm production. The epididymis can recover, but the treatment process is generally slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used symptomatically. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
