What is the Midwest Center for Male Fertility’s approach to varicoceles?
Dr. Milbank performs a comprehensive evaluation of every man who sees him for a fertility problem. This evaluation involves a detailed discussion of the man’s past medical history and a physical exam. At least one semen analysis is an essential part of the evaluation as well. If a varicocele is identified, Dr. Milbank discusses the potential implications of the varicocele and reviews in detail all of the treatment options available to the couple. These options may make more or less sense for the couple depending upon numerous factors including the severity of the semen abnormalities, the presence of a female fertility problem, personal beliefs etc. Our goal is to help you choose the treatment option that makes the most sense for you.
