Does a testicular cyst affect fertility?

Patient's question:

This situation has been going on for a while. I often feel like there's fluid accumulating in the testicles, and they are both red and swollen. However, because it's that particular area, it's a bit embarrassing to see a doctor. I did some research and think it might be caused by orchitis. Could you please advise?

Doctor's answer:

The normality of semen quality is a prerequisite for the ability to conceive. The testes are the male's important reproductive glands, and any issues with the testes can directly affect future fertility and sexual function. Based on your description, it is recommended that you consult a hospital as soon as possible for relevant examinations such as testicular color Doppler ultrasound, routine semen analysis, and testicular function tests, and follow medical advice for symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to local hygiene, drink more water, and avoid unsafe sex and trauma. Wishing you good health. Testicular cysts are prone to recurrence and require long-term medication.
