How to Check for Varicose Cord

Varicose cord is a type of male reproductive system disease. Varicose cord is very harmful to male friends, so we recommend that male friends learn more about varicocele. Once the symptoms of varicocele appear, go to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid greater harm caused by varicocele. Below we will introduce to male friends how to check varicocele.

Using staining methods and strictly following WHO standards to analyze sperm morphology is helpful for evaluating the degree of fertility impairment in infertile patients, and is also conducive to standardizing operations and unifying analysis standards. Therefore, for patients whose routine semen examination shows low sperm density, low motility, low vitality, and high deformity rate, it is recommended to perform a color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) examination. CDFI can visually and accurately observe the dilation degree and blood flow status of varicocele, and is currently a non-invasive and accurate diagnostic approach. Infrared scrotal temperature measurement or varicocelectomy can also be selected.

The clinical diagnosis criteria for CDFI are:

1. Clinical VC

At least three spermatic veins are detected in the spermatic vein complex under calm breathing, and the inner diameter of one of the veins is >2.0mm, or the inner diameter of the vein increases significantly when the abdominal pressure is increased, or there is obvious venous reflux after the Valsalva test;

2. Subclinical VC

The internal diameter of the spermatic vein is ≥1.8mm, there is no blood reflux during quiet breathing, reflux occurs during the Valsalva test, and the reflux phase is ≥800ms.

In the above article, we introduced a male reproductive system disease, which is varicocele. Because varicocele is very harmful, we recommend that male friends detect this disease in time and use appropriate methods to treat it. The above article introduces in detail the examination method of varicocele.
