Adolescent Varicocele and Penis Size

Dear Medical Professional,

Since a varicocele is associated with lower testosterone levels, does the existence of a varicocele in adolescence significantly impact penile development and growth?

Thank you for your help!

It is my  understanding from reading that an adolescent varicocele has ZERO impact on penis size and growth. Rest easy.
