Dear Samuel The indication for varicocele surgery in males is often based on documented infertility plus an abnormal semen specimen. In adolescents, the choice for surgery can not be based on these criteria since infertility is not documented and it is exceedingly difficult to get yourself a semen sample. However, it is not reasonable to withhold management of all adolescents having a varicocele since a few of these individuals, if left untreated, could become infertile. Similarly, there is not data to support performing varicocele surgery upon every person having a varicocele since not every him or her can be infertile. The precise guidelines for recommending varicocele surgery in adolescents are still unresolved; however, presently, most professionals agree that surgical correction might be of interest if a person from the following abnormalities is present: Abnormal semen analysis; Smaller testicle for a passing fancy side because the varicocele; Varicocele involving the two left and right sides. When surgical procedures are not advised, every person which has a varicocele ought to be followed with annual testicular exams to insure that this testicles are growing normally. Furthermore, after 17 years old, a yearly semen analysis is recommended. As long as the testicular exam and semen analysis remain normal, no intervention is essential. However, you should know that a single normal semen analysis does not guarantee normal fertility because new abnormalities may develop as time passes. Therefore, you will need to offer an annual check-up until completed your family. With regard J S Chowhan |
