Can varicoceles be prevented?

#1 · 26 October 2024, 6:40 PM

Varicoceles cannot always be prevented because they’re often linked to genetic or anatomical factors. However, maintaining good vascular health can help minimize the risk of vascular issues in general.

This includes a diet low in processed foods, regular exercise to encourage good circulation, avoiding smoking, and maintaining a healthy weight.

Avoiding activities that place strain on the abdominal area, like heavy lifting, can also help reduce the risk of varicocele symptoms worsening if a varicocele is already present.
