Patient's question:
I got married this year and don't have any children yet. Today, our company arranged a health check-up. The doctor carefully examined me and said I have an epididymal cyst. I'm very worried and don't know if it affects fertility. I'm here to consult medical experts: does an epididymal cyst affect fertility?Doctor's answer:
If there are cysts in the epididymis, this situation may affect sperm quality because the epididymis is where sperm is stored. If there are cysts in this area, it will definitely affect the control of the epididymis, so it may affect sperm quality. However, this is not absolute, and a hospital needs to conduct a thorough check of sperm quality to see if it is normal. As long as the sperm quality is normal, it will definitely not affect childbirth.
