Are you experiencing scrotal discomfort, testicular pain, or struggling with low sperm count? These symptoms may be caused by a varicocele—a condition where enlarged scrotal veins or testicular varicose veins interfere with blood flow and testicular function. At Curis Life Multi-Specialty Clinic in Andheri West, we offer safe, precise, and effective varicocele repair surgery including microsurgical varicocelectomy and laparoscopic options—all performed by our expert urologists.
Whether your goal is relieving scrotal pain or improving fertility, our minimally invasive approaches ensure a fast recovery with long-term benefits.What is a Varicocele?
A varicocele is an abnormal enlargement of veins within the scrotum, particularly in the pampiniform plexus of the spermatic cord. Similar to varicose veins in the legs, it often affects the left side and may cause testicular pain, swelling, or infertility due to impaired sperm production and quality.Symptoms of Varicocele
Many men with varicoceles are asymptomatic, but common symptoms include:- A dull, aching pain in the testicle
- Visible or palpable enlarged veins in the scrotum
- Left-sided scrotal swelling
- Sensation of heaviness or discomfort
- Infertility caused by varicocele
- Low sperm motility or count
- Testicular atrophy in chronic cases
What Causes Varicocele?
- Valve malfunction in the scrotal veins, causing blood to pool
- Reflux in the spermatic vein
- Increased abdominal pressure
- Hormonal imbalances impacting blood vessel function
- Genetic predisposition
Diagnosis of Varicocele
Our diagnostic process includes:- Physical examination – to detect enlarged veins
- Scrotal ultrasound for varicocele – confirming the grade (1 to 3)
- Semen analysis – to evaluate sperm health and fertility
- Hormone testing – in fertility-related cases
- Performed through a small inguinal incision under magnification
- High success rate, low recurrence
