I have bilateral grade 1 varicocele and it's causing pain and discomfort, especially when my left testicle lies down. Which type of varicocelectomy would be the best option for me right now?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

For a bilateral grade 1 varicocele causing pain and discomfort, especially when the left testicle lies down, microscopic inguinal or subinguinal varicocelectomy is generally considered the best option. This procedure minimizes the risk of complications, reduces pain, and offers a faster recovery time compared to other approaches
