Patient's question:
I've been married to my husband for 4 years. Six months ago, we wanted to have a child. Six months ago, I had a gynecological examination and ultrasound, and there were no problems. The doctor said it was okay to have a child, but after a year, I still haven't gotten pregnant. I asked my husband to have a thorough check-up at the hospital, and it was found that he has an ectopic testicle. How is an ectopic testicle usually treated?Doctor's answer:
Then it constitutes self-locking of this part. When the epididymal duct twists and coils around obstacles, it can again result in significant shortening of the epididymis, leading to the recurrence of a long-looped epididymal malformation. This occurs because testosterone levels are excessively twisted, causing the mesonephric tubules and mesonephric ducts to fail to develop or develop incompletely, resulting in various types of epididymal malformations. If one suffers from this condition, timely treatment is necessary, otherwise it may lead to infertility. The epididymis can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and relapse is prone after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
