I want to know what causes varicocele.

Patient's question:

Because of sexual intercourse or other reasons, I developed severe varicocele, and I had surgery five months ago (microscopic varicocelectomy). After the surgery, I didn't pay enough attention to recovery, and I started intense activities after only two weeks. I also resumed sexual intercourse. Now, I can still feel the twisted veins, and it's roughly estimated to be quite severe. In two months, I have to undergo the initial review for pilot certification. My other conditions are excellent, but this one is no longer acceptable. I have now made a very firm decision not to have sexual intercourse. Doctor, I don't expect a complete recovery or for all methods to cure it within two months. I am not very satisfied!

Doctor's answer:

You developed varicocele due to sexual intercourse. Five months ago, after surgery, you did not pay attention to rest and started intense exercise, followed by sexual intercourse, which triggered the recurrence of varicocele. My advice is that after the recurrence of your varicocele, you can only consider another surgery, as there are no other effective methods. After surgery, you need to pay attention to recovery and rest. At the same time, pay more attention to dietary issues, with light food as the foundation. It is hoped that male patients can receive professional treatment.
