I'm curious about recovery after my varicocele and hydrocele surgery done on January 3rd. When is it safe to get back to normal sexual activities like having sex or masturbating? I'm a bit worried about doing anything too soon.
You can typically resume normal sexual activities, including sex or masturbation, about **46 weeks** after varicocele and hydrocele surgery, once you've fully healed. However, it's best to consult your doctor for personalized advice, as recovery time can vary.
