Does it affect height or hormone production? I'm 15, 5'1 My doctor says I'm a late bloomer. But am I short because of my varicocele? it's on my left testicle. Thanks, also, anyone else have this? And does scrotal support help the flow?
Please, serious answers, it's okay if you can only answer some parts, all help is appreciated.

varicocele's don't effect height, there was some basketball player who had one and it didn't effect him. I can't tell you if scrotal support helps but you can always ask your doctor. that is what they are there for. there is a chance it might effect your fertility but again you would have to talk to your doctor.
another thing you have 2 testicles, technically you only need one to produce enough testosterone, the second one is sort of a back up.
