How should testicular ptosis be treated?

Patient's question:

Congenital testicular malformation, married for several years, have never been able to get pregnant. Later, wanting a child, I went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said the infertility was caused by testicular malformation. Is my condition very serious? How should testicular ptosis be treated?

Doctor's answer:

The scrotum is subject to thermal expansion and contraction. In hot weather or when wearing too warm clothing, it appears loose and curved. In cold weather or when dressed insufficiently, it tightens and shrinks. Therefore, if there are no other discomforts, normal curvature of the testicles is normal. However, if accompanied by symptoms such as pain or foreign bodies, it may indicate conditions like varicocele, orchitis, or epididymitis, and you should seek medical attention promptly. Male reproductive diseases can be relieved, but the treatment process is generally slow, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, during treatment, medication must be used according to symptoms. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
