Is it normal for the testicles to be of different sizes after varicocele surgery?

Patient's question:

It feels much smaller on one side when touched, and it feels pointed at the end, but the ultrasound results showed no problems.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, varicocele surgery will never affect the size of the testicles. From the MRI report, it can be seen that the left side is slightly longer than the right by 2mm and slightly more rounded. This will also never be unrelated to the surgery, nor will it interfere with the function of the testicles. Organs with symmetrical growth in humans are very difficult to grow exactly the same, so don't worry. Varicocele is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication to maintain. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment in professional and regular hospitals in a timely manner, and treatment should be considered based on the results of careful examination. Also, pay attention to quitting smoking and drinking, and pay attention to personal hygiene.
