Doctors’ responses

Left-sided varicocele at your age can often be managed without surgery if the symptoms are mild. Since you’ve had a right-side inguinal hernia surgery before, it’s important to monitor the condition carefully. The tablet Silidol-D8 (Tamsulosin 0.4 mg + Dutasteride 0.5 mg) you are taking is typically prescribed for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) to improve urine flow and reduce prostate enlargement. You may need to continue taking this medication long-term as it helps manage urinary symptoms, but your doctor will decide the duration based on regular follow-ups. It is recommended to undergo routine prostate check-ups and urine flow tests to monitor your condition. If your varicocele causes persistent pain, discomfort, or fertility issues, or if it significantly impacts your quality of life, surgery may be considered. Varicocelectomy or embolization are the common surgical options. However, at your age, surgery is usually recommended only if symptoms are severe, as the risks may outweigh the benefits. To prevent worsening, wear supportive underwear, avoid heavy lifting, and engage in light exercises to promote circulation. Stay hydrated and follow up with your urologist regularly to assess the need for further treatment. Let me know if you need more details or assistance.
