Q: will a varicocele worsen with more sexual activity, and are there any restrictions on how often?

: Although prolonged standing and physical activities including sexual activity can increase congestion in varicoceles I've never seen a patient who restricted his sexual activity because of a varicocele. However, a urologist would have seen many more patients with varicoceles and can answer your question better.
