The best time for children's undescended testicle surgery

Patient's question:

My dear child is now 1 year and 8 months old. At birth, he had undescended testicles. Now, he is very troubled. I don't know what to do. I would like to ask for advice on the best time for pediatric undescended testicle surgery?

Doctor's answer:

If neither of the two eggs fails to find a better surgical time for cryptorchidism, the hCG test can be performed before the above localization test (3 days after hCG injection). Measure the levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and testosterone in the female's blood. If the testosterone level is elevated and FSH and LH levels are normal, it indicates the presence of functional male ovarian tissue. It can be localized or surgically explored. The found code system has a reservation value.
