  5. Hi Doctor, Ive been dealing with bilateral grade 1 varicocele, and my left testicle feels much lower and heavier than my right, especially when lying down. I consulted a urologist who prescribed Hetrazan and Health Okay tablets, but they dont seem to be helping. I still experience pain and discomfort in my left testicle. Do you think surgery is necessary? If so, what type of surgery would be best and have the least complications?

Bilateral varicocele with discomfort, especially in the left testicle, may sometimes require surgery if symptoms persist. The most common option is laparoscopic varicocelectomy, which has fewer complications and a quicker recovery time compared to open surgery. It's best to discuss your symptoms and treatment options with your urologist to see if surgery is necessary in your case.
