It can be quite effective. Correcting a varicocele is a common procedure to treat male infertility.

The treatment for infertility is usually surgery, which often (though not always) works. There are hospitals that perform it on an outpatient basis. To read up more on this issue, visit the following website:

However, there are some urologists who believe that treatment is usually not effective (http://www.patient.co.uk/showdoc/23068876/)
I suggest your husband make an appointment with an urologist and discuss possible options.
