What should I do if I have varicocele to recover?

Patient's question:

I got divorced from my wife three years ago, and she hasn't been pregnant. Later, after a thorough examination, it was found that I had an illness. I suffer from varicocele, and now I am very scared. I don't know if there is no hope for conception, and I don't know how I got this disease or if it can be cured. Hello, doctor, is there a way to save this disease? I want to have children.

Doctor's answer:

Your varicocele should be treated early because it is one of the important factors contributing to male infertility. There are generally three specific treatment methods for varicocele, as follows:
1. Asymptomatic mild varicocele does not require treatment.
2. Non-surgical treatment: For mild varicocele or those accompanied by neurasthenia, measures such as reporting scrotal swelling and applying cold compresses may be used.
3. Surgical treatment: For severe varicocele, a history of sperm count below 20 million per cubic centimeter for three consecutive times, or testicular atrophy; if the varicose veins disappear when lying flat, the inguinal internal spermatic vein ligation can be performed.
Wishing you a speedy recovery! The condition of male urological diseases can be very serious, and it is recommended that patients seek timely symptomatic treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, attention should be paid to self-care, proper diet, and avoiding worsening the condition.
