What is the reason for the asymmetry of the two testicles?

Patient's question:

Boy, 20 months old, noticed that the two testicles are not symmetrical on both sides, especially when wearing more clothes and after wearing pull-ups. There are no other special symptoms. At six months, this phenomenon was also present. The hospital conducted a thorough examination and said it was hydrocele. They advised to wait and see what happens.

Doctor's answer:

This phenomenon is common in babies and there's no problem. You can have a color ultrasound for a detailed examination. Pay attention to hygiene and develop good habits. Eating light and easily digestible foods helps maintain good health. Testicular conditions tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication treatment. For male patients, it's important to actively seek professional and regular medical treatment and consider treatment based on examination results. Additionally, it's necessary to limit sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
