Patient's question:
How to treat moderate varicocele Hello doctor, I experienced mild varicocele again when I was 18 years old. At that time, there was no major problem with my body, and I didn't pay attention to it. Now how did it become severe? When I went to the hospital again, they said it was moderate. I want to ask how to treat moderate varicocele? I want to ask how to treat moderate varicocele?Doctor's answer:
The right common iliac artery of the male continuously inhibits the left common iliac vein, causing partial reflux obstruction of the left spermatic vein, which leads to the development of varicocele in male patients. The treatment of varicocele, for mild cases, can be conservative, involving rest, wearing tight-fitting underwear, reducing strenuous exercise, and appropriately using blood-activating medications. However, moderate to severe cases, or those accompanied by infertility or abnormal semen, require surgical intervention. Because varicocele obstructs blood, it triggers circulatory disorders in the testes, impairing their normal sperm production and excretion functions. Over time, this can lead to testicular atrophy and the loss of all functions.
