I have been suffering from right sided testicle pain and low sperm production for around 8 years. Having attending my sexual health clinic over the years it had always been dismissed as an infection of some kind.

Finally this year I arranged to see a Urologyst off my own back who confirmed I had vericocelles.

I had a vericocelle emobolisation 3 months ago but still feel a dull pain in my right testicle.

What concerns me more is that the semen analysis I had after the procedure shows that while my count is normal my motility and form are very low, too low to conceed.

My consultant has said that when I get retested in a few weeks I should see a change as it takes around 3 months for the effects of the procedure to show. My sperm production is also very low still, I personally think it's getting worse. It takes 3-4 days to 'store up' a decent amount and if I ejaculate the following day there is a small dribble.

Any experience anyone else has or similar stories would be grateful.

Thanks
