Abstract: (203 Views)
Objectives: Varicocelectomy is a surgical intervention to treat varicocele. It may recover fertility in men by improving semen parameters and sex hormones. This research studied the role of varicocelectomy, focusing on semen properties and sex hormones.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, the data were collected from 45 patients with different varicocele grades who underwent varicocelectomy. The data were collected and compared before and after clinical examination.
Results: After varicocelectomy, a significant improvement was observed in certain semen parameters, such as motility and concentration. However, among sex hormones, only testosterone increased after the surgical intervention (P=0.007).
Discussion: To our knowledge, varicocele treatment may almost improve male fertility. Accordingly, varicocelectomy positively affects parameters such as testosterone and serum FSH levels and sperm count and motility. As such, varicocelectomy emerges as a practical approach to improve male fertility and sex disorders.
