Can varicocele cause yellow sperm?
VaricoceleAnswer
A varicocele itself does not directly cause semen to turn yellow. The color of your semen is typically a whitish-gray. A persistent yellow color is more often a sign of something else, such as an infection in the reproductive tract, the presence of urine in the semen, or an unusually high number of white blood cells (a condition called leukocytospermia). However, there could be an indirect link. A varicocele can sometimes be associated with inflammation or changes in the testicular environment that might make you more susceptible to such infections.
If you notice a consistent change in the color of your semen, especially if it is accompanied by other symptoms like pain or a foul odor, it is very important to see a doctor to find out the true cause. A proper diagnosis is essential. The medical professionals at SCI hospital can help you investigate any concerning symptoms. We recommend scheduling an online or offline consultation to get a clear answer.
