Does masturbation cause varicocele?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Almost all men enjoy their bodies in this way, so it would be difficult to find a control group. However, there's no reason to think it's the cause of varicocele.

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.
