There are no medications that directly treat varicoceles themselves. However, some medications can help manage pain and discomfort associated with the condition. Over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen can provide relief. Additionally, lifestyle changes, such as wearing supportive underwear,can help with pain management

I've had bilateral varicocele for the past 2 years and have been feeling dull pain for the last 10 days. I'm taking Venixmin 900 mg and rutoheal but there's no relief. The surgeon said it's mild and doesn't need treatment, but the pain bothers me. I'm in my 4th year of MBBS and worried about infertility risks. If the pain goes away, do I still need any treatment? What's the best surgery option to prevent recurrence

I'm struggling with premature ejaculation and it's really frustrating because I finish way before my partner. I've tried medications like Sildenafil and Tadalafil but they don't seem to help. I'm not sure who I should see about thisshould I go to a psychiatrist, sexologist, or urologist? Any advice would be appreciated.

-It sounds frustrating, and I'm sorry you're going through this. I would suggest starting with a consultation with a urologist or a sexologist, as they specialize in sexual health issues like premature ejaculation. They can guide you on treatment options
