Question:
Do varicoceles really cause infertility? How likely is it that I could be infertal by a varicocele?
I am 13 years old and I found that I have like a purplish glob of what looks to be veins in my scrotum. I've heard they are bad and harmless. Is it normal that it happens during puberty? Please Help!!!!!
Answers:
Yes, it can cause infertility, since the temperature in your testicles is affected.
You've got to have surgery to have the problem corrected. I developed it when I was 15, and got surgery when I was older and now I have two kids.
I suggest you go to an Urologist and have it checked
