Varicocele and testicular cyst: What is it?

Patient's question:

Left varicocele, right epididymal head cyst. What's the problem? Also underwent a cystoscopy examination.

Doctor's answer:

According to the scrotal color Doppler ultrasound and semen analysis you purchased, it is diagnosed that you have left varicocele, right epididymal head cyst, and oligospermia. Recommendations:
1) Check the semen analysis once a week, and take the average of three consecutive tests to accurately evaluate semen quality. During this period, rest, avoid smoking and alcohol, and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
2) If you do not experience scrotal heaviness or pain during daily life, have already achieved pregnancy, and have no further need for conception, you can wait and see without special intervention.
3) Indications for varicocele surgery: male infertility caused by poor semen quality, exclusion of other causes of scrotal discomfort such as heaviness or pain, and special occupational needs such as for veterans.
