How Can Having "extra" Testicular Veins Cause Infertility?

Hi.. My husband was told today that he has "extra" veins on his testicles that is a possible cause for our infertility. I'm a nurse and yet have never heard of this. We've been informed about Varicocele, however, they are stating this is not the issue. How would having extra veins in the testicle affect infertility?

Hello
Welcome here.
I donot think there is something like extra vein on testicles or it affects fertility.

I donot know what your doctor meant by this.

I would suggest you to take another opinion from an urologist. Go for scrotal ultrasound.

Semen analysis for males is the most important investigation to determine male infertility.

Hope this helps.
Thanks.
