Patient's question:
23 years old, no sexual experience, 5 years of masturbation history, severe varicocele in the left spermatic cord for two or three years. A color Doppler ultrasound was done in March 2005, and surgery was performed on May 3rd. I went home on the 6th. There was no infection in the incision, and after healing, a hard scar remained. However, it's not visible once the pubic hair grows back. Now, I basically have no symptoms, and I notice my semen is more abundant than before. I can no longer feel the varicocele after holding my breath after deep breathing. But I still feel that the left spermatic cord and testicle are slightly larger than the right, and I have a slight sensation of fullness. Should I still worry about not being able to have children?12.03 checked prostatic fluid, lecithin
Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your situation, if you persist in treatment, it generally will not affect future fertility. It is recommended to avoid masturbation and you can refer to the following methods:Methods
1. Distraction Method: Fully arrange and allocate your spare time so that you have no time to think about masturbation.
2. Learning Method: Properly understand the human body and the harms of the masturbation habit, eliminating the sense of mystery about sex.
3. "Eliminate Evil" Method: Concentrate your attention, eliminate distractions, and persist in avoiding contact with unhealthy publications and TV programs.
4. Sleep Method: It is best to go to bed immediately when you feel sleepy. The time before getting up in the morning is also the most likely time for masturbation. If you have urine, don’t hold it in and empty it promptly to prevent an erection.
Steps
1. Before going to bed, persist in 20 to 30 minutes of intense exercise until you feel exhausted. Wash your face and feet with cold water, then immediately go to bed.
2. After going to bed, eliminate all thoughts and close your eyes to sleep.
3. If you still can’t fall asleep, strictly control yourself and avoid thinking about anything related to sex.
4. If the above methods are still ineffective, you can insert earphones and listen to a program that you are not interested in. When the thought of masturbation flashes in your mind, consciously overcome it.
5. For those with a strong desire for masturbation, you should try to reduce the time spent alone and spend more time with others, which is essentially a way to eliminate your masturbation habit.
