Hi, I have had a varicocele for about 4 years now and at first my doctor said I should get surgery but I didnt because I was young and scared to get it, now I am 4 years older and thinking about talking to my parents to get surgery on it. At what point should someone get surgery if they have a varicocele?
Good Day, and thank you for being with Chat Doctor ! Surgery for varicocele should be done as soon as diagnosed since we are preventing damage to the testicles brought about by the varicocele. I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at
