Does varicocele treatment guarantee fertility improvement?

#1 · 26 October 2024, 6:43 PM

While varicocele treatment can improve sperm parameters like count, motility, and morphology, it does not guarantee restored fertility, especially if other fertility issues are present.

Studies show that treatment helps about 50-70% of men with varicocele-related infertility improve their sperm quality. However, even if sperm quality improves, other fertility factors, like female partner health, may influence the outcome.

For some couples, varicocele treatment alone may be enough, but others might need additional fertility treatments such as IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) for conception.
