My husband was also dx with varicoceles. We decided not to opt for the surgery and try fertility treatments first since he is not having an pain or discomfort from the varicoceles. We are going through IVF with ICSI (will start Lupron on Sunday) and are hoping this will be successful. If not, DH will have the surgery and hopefully his numbers will go up afterwards. I'd love to hear what results people have had from the surgery.
