Patient's question:
Varicocele causes oligospermia, whether surgical treatment or medication treatment is needed. For patients with prostatitis, is the examination of semen not accurate enough?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele-induced oligospermia requires surgical treatment for varicocele. It is recommended that you visit the urology department of a hospital for a thorough examination. An ultrasound of the prostate should be performed to confirm whether prostatitis exists, followed by anti-inflammatory and symptomatic treatment. After a diagnosis of varicocele, surgical treatment is necessary. Varicocele can be relieved, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications should be used symptomatically, and patients should maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
