Varicocele Surgery is "The most controversial issue in the field of Andrology"
Is varicocele surgery (AKA "repair" or "varicocelectomy") effective for varicocele and infertility treatment? Well, the procedure has been around since the early 1900s! It later gained popularity in the mid-1950s. But, after 100 years, varicocele surgery is still "one of the most controversial issues in the field of Andrology" [1]. To this date, the science is still inconclusive! 2018 meta-analysis of high-quality clinical trials showed more mixed results when comparing observation with varicocelectomy! [2]
100+ Years of Mixed Results? Why Not Just Try Something Else?
Do not get stuck on surgery when there are so many other options! Unfortunately, when you are diagnosed with varicocele, your doctor tells you your only options are "surgery" or to wait and "do nothing." Fortunately, there is a lot that you can do to treat varicocele and infertility!
