A member asked:
I know that masturbation doesn't cause varicocele. but can it worsen varicocele grade 3 (sartechi)? not excessive, only 1-3 per week. because from what i read in anti-masterbate forum, they said masturbation can make varicocele worse and worse.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varicocele: A varicocele is a swelling in the veins leading to your testicles. Any forceful pressure, from inside (straining) or outside (squeezing) can make a varicocele worse. Talk to your urologist about your specific situation.
