Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing pain in my reproductive organs. During sexual intercourse, the amount of semen has significantly decreased, and the semen is yellow in color with a bad odor. The size of my testicles is also uneven. I used to masturbate frequently, and after a thorough examination at the hospital, I was diagnosed with varicocele 3.5. Is it serious?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele with a size of 3.5 cm indicates a relatively high severity. If it is 0.3 cm, it is relatively mild, and the severity is not high. According to current clinical diagnostic findings, if the semen color is yellow and has an odor, it should be considered as an inflammation of the urinary and reproductive system. Varicocele mainly leads to a shortened liquefaction time of semen and increased sperm vitality. For patients, if the condition of andrological diseases is severe, timely symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication are necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of andrological diseases. Additionally, patients should pay attention to their diet and psychological care. I hope the answers to these questions can help everyone. Thank you.
