Brief Answer:
Hi I think you can have sexual activity now.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, welcome to healthcaremagic.

I think it is advisable to refrain from sexual activity for one week after varicocele surgery. So, you can start that now as one week has passed.

You can start planning now. There is no problem in that. You can go for ovulation induction with timed intercourse for conceiving. Talk to your doctor regarding this.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any other query, I will be happy to help.
