Is varicocele a cause of oligospermia?

Patient's question:

A few days ago, after a thorough check, the doctor said this. It's oligospermia. Is it the cause of the sperm disease?

Doctor's answer:

Varicocele can lead to a decline in sperm quality and is also prone to causing sperm liquefaction issues. Specifically, you need to undergo a routine sperm examination, followed by a varicocele surgery. Afterward, you should take anti-inflammatory medication for two weeks and then re-examine your semen routine. Varicocele can be relieved, but the treatment process is generally slow, and there is a high risk of recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is crucial to actively cooperate with your doctor, use medication appropriately, and maintain a light diet. Avoid stimulating foods, smoking, and drinking beer.
