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 returned home on the 6th. There was no infection in the incision, and after healing, a hard scar remained. However, it is not visible once the pubic hair grows back. Now, there are basically no symptoms, and I notice that 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 there is a slight sensation of fullness. Am I still worried 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 abstain from masturbation. 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 recognize the harms of the masturbation habit, eliminating the mystery surrounding sex.
3. Elimination 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 waking up in the morning is also when masturbation is most likely to occur. If you have the urge to urinate, do not hold it in and relieve yourself promptly to prevent an erection.
Steps
1. Before going to bed, engage in intense exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, reaching the point of fatigue. Wash your face and feet with cold water, then immediately go to bed.
2. After getting into bed, eliminate all thoughts and close your eyes to sleep.
3. If you cannot 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 thoughts of masturbation arise in your mind, consciously overcome them.
5. For those with a strong urge to masturbate, you should reduce the time spent alone and spend more time with others, thereby eliminating the opportunity for your masturbation habit.
