What causes seminal vasculature?

Varicocele may be caused by venous valve insufficiency, prolonged standing and sitting, increased abdominal pressure, weak blood vessel walls, genetic factors, etc.

1. Venous valve insufficiency:

Abnormal valve function in the spermatic vein will lead to obstruction of blood return, increased intravenous pressure, and gradual dilation and tortuosity of the blood vessels. This condition is common in congenital valve dysplasia or acquired valve damage, and is the main pathogenesis of primary varicocele.

2. Standing and sitting for long periods of time:

Standing or sitting for a long time will increase the resistance of spermatic vein return, especially men who are engaged in teachers, drivers and other occupations are more susceptible to the disease. Gravity causes blood to accumulate in the lower limbs and pelvic veins, indirectly affecting the spermatic vein return.

3. Increased abdominal pressure:

Factors such as chronic constipation, long-term coughing, and heavy physical labor will continue to increase abdominal pressure, compressing the spermatic vein and affecting blood return. Abdominal obesity in obese people will also increase abdominal pressure and become a predisposing factor.

4. Weak blood vessel walls:

The dysplasia of smooth muscles and elastic fibers in the spermatic vein blood vessel wall will lead to reduced blood vessel tone and prone to dilation under the action of blood flow pressure. This condition may be related to abnormal collagen metabolism.

5. Genetic factors:

Men with a family history of varicose veins are at higher risk, which is associated with an inherited abnormality in connective tissue development. Some patients may also suffer from vascular diseases such as varicose veins or hemorrhoids in the lower limbs.

It is recommended to avoid staying in the same posture for a long time and move for 5-10 minutes every hour to promote blood circulation.； Control weight and reduce abdominal pressure ； Wear loose underwear to reduce local compression ； Pay attention to supplementing vitamin C and protein in your diet to enhance blood vessel elasticity ； Moderate aerobic exercise such as jogging and swimming improves blood circulation throughout the body. If you experience scrotal swelling and pain or affect your reproductive function, you should seek medical treatment promptly to evaluate whether surgical treatment is needed.
