Patient's question:
Will varicocele be cured? Let's consult about what varicocele is in men, what causes it, can it be cured, and can it be done without surgery? We still want to get pregnant, but we will never get pregnant even if we don't use contraception. Then we had a thorough examination and were told it was varicocele. What should we do? Can it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Whether varicocele can be cured mainly depends on its severity. The treatment for varicocele, for mild cases, can be conservative, which involves rest, wearing tight underwear, increasing intense exercise, and appropriately using blood-activating medications, among other methods. Mild varicocele can be cured. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take oral medications promptly and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
