[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you told your RE about the surgery? My RE said that surgery went the way of the dinosaurs. I would discuss it with your RE first.[/quote] OP here. We're going to discuss it with the RE this week. My understanding is that studies on varicocele surgery show improvement in around 2/3 of men and that those men showed a significant improvement in semen parameters. I will say that the RE of course has an interest in moving couples toward IVF, and the fact that ICSI is available makes varicocele surgery unnecessary if you're willing to do IVF/ICSI (hence my question). But all that said, we'll discuss with the RE soon. Thanks for your response. [/quote]
