Does varicocele cause erectile dysfunction?

Patient's question:

Does varicocele cause premature ejaculation? What are the symptoms of varicocele? I don't know if it is~! Is there any equipment that can be examined? X-ray?

Doctor's answer:

Varicocele generally does not cause premature ejaculation. The dilated veins can lead to the decline of sperm production function and may affect fertility. You can go to the hospital for a scrotal ultrasound to confirm this. For men who have not fathered children, it is necessary to have surgery as early as possible to prevent it from affecting fertility. For patients with varicocele, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it is not treated in time, it may affect your physical condition. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. I wish you a speedy recovery!
