Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Guidance: The factors or causes of small testicles are also related to age. Generally, from birth to the age of 12, the testicles remain inactive and undeveloped, with a typical volume of about 1 to 4 ml. After the age of 12, boys enter the development period, and the volume of the testicles increases. The volume of adult male testicles is 16 to 25 ml, with an average of 19.8 ml. After the age of 60, men enter the period of sexual decline, and the volume of the testicles shrinks. After the age of 70, the volume of male testicles can shrink to less than 16 ml. However, if the volume of an adult male's testicles is less than 10 ml, it indicates small testicles. Small testicles can lead to low sexual function and infertility, and can also impair sperm production, resulting in a low or absent sperm count. If the testicles are small, it is important to seek medical examination and treatment promptly.
