Patient's question:
I've been feeling tightness in my testicles lately, and occasionally there's a sense of pain. I'm worried it might affect my fertility in the future. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor told me I have varicocele. He advised me to pay close attention to reducing pressure on the lower body and to wear loose clothing. Can I still masturbate with varicocele?Doctor's answer:
Moderate sexual activity will never cause varicocele, only excessive sexual activity can lead to varicocele. Excessive sexual activity causes frequent congestion of the reproductive organs, obstructs blood flow, and thus leads to varicocele. In addition to sexual activity, the following are the reasons that can cause varicocele:1. Regular drug use: Drinking a small amount of beer is beneficial to the body's blood circulation, but consuming excessive or thick alcohol will increase the burden on the cardiovascular system.
2. Cold stimulation: Frequent exposure to cold will stimulate blood vessels and testicles, causing blood vessels to constrict and become disordered, and the vegetative nervous system will also be endocrinally imbalanced, thereby significantly reducing the elasticity of blood vessels.
