A member asked:

Can hypogonadism be caused by a varicoecele?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Varicoceles occupy a portion of the scrotum (sac) and can compression the testis and decrease fertility, libido, etc. This can be due to poor temperature regulation and restriction of blood flow to the testis.
