Does surgery on the left epididymal head cyst affect fertility?

Patient's question:

In February of this year, there was a left epididymal head cyst measuring 1.15 x 0.7. In July of this year, it had grown to 1.55 x 1.0, and there was also hydrocele on the right testicle measuring 0.7. I want to have surgery but am afraid it will affect fertility.

Doctor's answer:

If symptoms reappear significantly, it is recommended to seek follow-up treatment at a regular hospital's urology department to clarify the specific methods for treatment. The condition of the epididymis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek diagnosis at professional and regular hospitals and consider treatment based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
