Answer
Yes, a varicocele is one of the most common reversible causes of male infertility. The condition can impact your ability to conceive by creating an unhealthy environment for sperm production. The pooling of blood in the enlarged veins raises the temperature inside the scrotum. Your testicles need to be slightly cooler than the rest of your body to produce healthy sperm effectively. This increased heat can damage or kill sperm, lower your sperm count, and reduce sperm motility, which is their ability to swim. Over time, this can make it more difficult for your partner to become pregnant.
The good news is that treating the varicocele can often lead to significant improvements in sperm quality and increase the chances of natural conception. If you are facing fertility challenges, getting evaluated is a crucial step.
