Patient's question:
My friend is now daydreaming every day and feels extremely upset about the illness he has contracted. This is because he doesn't have a good understanding of the disease, leaving him feeling uncertain and anxious, which makes him unable to eat or sleep every day. What causes epididymal malformation?Doctor's answer:
Attached testicular malformation may be related to endocrine dysfunction during embryonic growth and development. Due to abnormally high testosterone levels, mesonephric tubules and mesonephric ducts fail to develop or develop incompletely, leading to various types of epididymal malformations. If the mesonephric ducts fail to develop at all, it can result in congenital absence of the epididymis and vas deferens. For patients with epididymal malformations, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
