A member asked:
Can hydrocele cause infertility and what is the percentage.?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Maybe not: I've not heard of hydrocele causing infertility. I would confirm it is nothing other than hydrocele if not done so yet. Varicoceles have been know to cause abnormal semen without a known cause but postulated that temperature changes caused by varicocele may be a risk factor.
