Patient's question:
Can varicocele on the left side be cured? I always thought I didn't feel anything uncomfortable, but after being married for more than a year, my wife hasn't been pregnant yet, and the family has been very anxious. The hospital did a thorough examination and said it was varicocele on the left side. I want to know what caused it and if it can be cured. Can I still get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
The high ligation of internal spermatic vein is the most effective treatment for infertility caused by varicocele. The general surgical method involves ligating the entire spermatic vessels. In pregnancy-oriented varicocele surgery, the spermatic artery is freed and preserved, especially when the goal is complete recovery of fertility. However, many medical professionals currently are unable to achieve this due to technical limitations during surgical treatment. Therefore, patients with fertility recommendations must choose specialized hospitals like ours to avoid unnecessary detours. Varicocele can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and recurrence is common after treatment.
