Patient's question:
As the title says, I am 24 years old and have varicocele. The left testicle is much smaller than the right one. The reason is that the varicocele compresses the testicle's growth and development. I want to ask, after the surgery, how can the testicle have a chance to return to a normal size?Doctor's answer:
Actually, this surgery will never interfere with your growth and development or your testicles, because it simply removes your excessive veins. However, this condition tends to recur, so you must be vigilant about it later, especially on the left side. You must ensure that your underwear covers it properly. Varicocele can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, you must actively cooperate with your doctor and take medication appropriately.
