  5. VARICOCELE...can it effect testosterone?

    The embol is available in the UK free under the NHS. If you say you are in unacceptable pain, then you should get it. But I take it you are not in the UK.

  7. VARICOCELE...can it effect testosterone?

    You sound pretty normal to me sex-drive-wise. Men do vary in their sex drive. You sound a bit like me. I can't grow very much facial hair. A decent goatee, but the rest is pretty sparse. T of 15 is a little less than ideal but it also depends on when you had the test done. T tests should be...

    Did you have any testicular atrophy? Are your nuts small or soft at any time? Did you get your Testosterone levels checked? What was the result?

  9. VARICOCELE...can it effect testosterone?

    Let us know how you get on. And I hope it goes well for you whatever you decide. From my reading, the embol is not always successful and if not it may need to be followed up with surgery. Are you are to get a 3rd opinion on surgery? Cornell seems to be the gold standard if you listen to...

  10. VARICOCELE...can it effect testosterone?

    Hi 80schild. Sorry to hear about your pain. Did anything change, i.e. did you suffer a strain or a sports injury, or any other factor that you may be aware of that possibly made the varicocele worse? Did you recently take up weight training and suddenly notice the varicocele was worse? Are...

  12. VARICOCELE...can it effect testosterone?

    Yep so I must have a grade 3 on each side. I always wondered were mine 2 or 3. Nobody ever told me. I feel really down about this because my doctors won't take the problem seriously; they just smile and say 'enjoy your life, don't worry.' I do worry, because my testicles are smaller than...

  13. VARICOCELE...can it effect testosterone?

    You must have a very small varicocele if you need to pinch the veins whilst bearing down in order to detect it. My varicoceles are palpable lying down without doing any valsalva maneuver.

  14. VARICOCELE...can it effect testosterone?

    I don't think pinching the veins is a good idea. I'd leave well enough alone. You can palpate the veins in a gentle way and that tells you all you need to know without risking further injury to already damaged veins.

    How much does it cost to have the op in Israel? What technique do they use?

  16. VARICOCELE...can it effect testosterone?

    I'm pretty sure I have testicular atrophy both sides due to bi-lateral varicoceles. The nuts are pretty small and soft a lot of the time. It saddens me greatly. Not sure if embolization is the way to go. I will see the doc next week and ask to be referred to a urologist.

Chen I do worry, not because the pain is unbearable, but cos I fear what it might be doing to my...

  20. Would these exercises increase inter-abdominal pressure and make varicocele worse?

    Still wondering about this guys. I think the weights is making the varicocele worse on my right side. I'm not doing really heavy weights. But does increase aching mean I am doing harm or is the weight-training simply increasing vascularity in my whole body? I just don't know if doing weights is...
