Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your question is valid, but rest assured, a small Spermatocele almost never interferes with fertility. These clear fluid containing cysts are very common and do not almost ever require treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. V. Sasanka
