Living with one testical?


this is a long story. i'm keeping it short. i was born w/ left testical undesceded.i had surgery for a second time at 13 (just last tuesday to be exact) it was dead, so the doctor removed it. what is living w/ 1 health testical like? will it be easy to have sex and have childern? what would a women think?

the doctor examined my right one and said it's very healthy.

Doesn't make much of a difference. Having one testicle removed, the other one will compensate for the lost one in terms of testosterone and sperm production. Having sex will be fine and you will be able to have children as long as the remaining testicle is okay. Men often have to have a testicle removed as a result of testicular cancer, which affects many men in their 20s and 30s. Don't worry. Most women will understand unless they are extremely immature.

You will be able to have sex and produce children, many men live with only one testicle and encounter no problems. I am surprised the Dr. didn't replace the dead testicle with a fake one. What women will think is up to the individual person and how self conscious you are. I would talk to the Dr. who performed the operation and ask him the same questions you asked here.

Seriously DON'T stress about it. It's not a big deal. I have both of mine but they're not both needed in men. You will do fine with only one - promise!!!

Its more than enough and you can happily marry and have children. A lot of people out there have only 1 testis due to prostate cancer. You will be fine...Trust me...

You only need one healthy testicle to have sex and reproduce.
