Get the Facts: Is Biking Bad for Varicocele?Biking causes varicocele and also massively increases risk of other scrotal diseases. The science shows that 48% of on-road cyclists and 94% of mountain bikers have some form of scrotal disease! [Science Source - doi.org/10.1097/jsm.0b013e31815c042f] So, yes, biking is bad for varicocele. Follow the outlined advice and you can minimize the risk of biking on varicocele. It does some work, but it is possible, and very much worth it. KEEP READING! Biking Causes Testicular Micro TraumaThe bike seat is positioned right where the testicular veins leave the scrotum. Biking pumps and nudges the bike seat into your the scrotal area. Micro-trauma from the bike seat damages the testicles and testicular veins, vein valves, arteries and nerves. Testicular micro-trauma is associated with varicocele grade and symptom severity. What can you do?
Testicular Hyperthermia Means Testicular DamageNow, you might have been tempted to buy a nice cushion seat to prevent micro-trauma, but thick cushion seats trap heat and impair ventilation! Trapped heat damages the testicles and increases varicocele swelling. Think about it: Testicular heat damage is very real. Your testicles have enzymes and organelles that only function at lower temperatures. Even elevating the temperature of the testicles by 1-2 degree can damage sperm and testosterone production, and may even lead to testicular shrinkage. [Science Source - doi.org/10.1111/andr.12228] What you can do:
Pressure (Major Cause of Varicocele)Biking is a unique form of exercise because it isolates and places large amounts of pressure in the lower torso. When exerting and pushing down on the peddle, you create high abdominal abdominal pressure. When performed repetitively and over a long-duration, this pressure increases varicocele swelling. What you can do:
Pelvic Floor Tightness & InflammationTo make matters worse, biking can also tighten up and can cause inflammation of the pelvic floor muscles & tissue. Pelvic floor imbalances have been known for some time to be associated with varicocele and can cause some very debilitating disease in some men. What you can do:
Biking & Muscular ImbalancesBiking in most cases is technically an innately imbalanced activity. It is quadriceps dominant, tightens the hip flexors and hamstrings, can cause inactivity of the glutes, and in some weakens the posterior chain and cause neck postural imbalances if not done correctly. What you can do:
