What should I do if my baby's testicles are of different sizes?

Patient's question:

2-year-old baby, recently discovered that the baby's testicles are one big and one small. The right one looks like two, and the left one is sometimes retracted inside. The size difference between the left and right is obvious. No pain or other discomfort has been noticed. What should be done?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, the left testicle is slightly larger than the right, which is a normal phenomenon. For small infants, they are still in the early stages of growth and development. During the puberty stage, the reproductive organs will undergo rapid growth and development, taking shape, and only then can the size of the testicles be objectively assessed. For patients with urological diseases, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
