Patient's question:
A man had sex once two weeks after undergoing surgery for left varicocele... Will it affect his health?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it is recommended to wait for one month before resuming sexual activity. During this period, it is advisable to minimize sexual intercourse and avoid prolonged standing or drinking alcohol. It is suggested that you visit the hospital one month later for a follow-up ultrasound to assess the surgical outcome. Do not be overly anxious and maintain a calm mood. Pay attention to your diet, avoiding spicy foods. Varicocele can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with your doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a balanced diet during the treatment period.
