I had grade 3 varicocele surgery 2 weeks ago and I'm 25 years old - will this cause any issues after marriage like fertility problems or discomfort during intercourse?

Varicocele surgery (varicocelectomy) is generally not expected to cause long-term issues related to sexual function or infertility after marriage. While there's a small risk of complications like testicular atrophy or infection, these are less common than the benefits. The surgery primarily aims to improve sperm quality and increase fertility, and many men experience improvements in both. Discomfort or pain during intercourse is not a typical side effect of varicocele surgery
