Bilateral cryptorchidism for several years, is there a relationship with obesity?

Patient's question:

I've felt like I have bilateral undescended testicles for several years. I had them since I was a child, but now they come and go sometimes! So, I've never gone for a check-up. Doctor, what should I do? What's going on here? Does it have anything to do with obesity?

Doctor's answer:

Obesity can affect testicular contraction. However, it does not cause undescended testes, so it is best to visit a regular hospital for consultation, specifically the urology department, to have a scrotal ultrasound, and check your sexual hormones and semen quality. It is recommended to go to a regular specialized hospital for examination and treatment.
