Patient's question:
Recently, while taking a bath, I noticed that my testicles felt a bit smaller. My wife mentioned that they might not be in the right position, but since I was at work, I didn't examine them closely. How can I confirm if my testicles are properly inflated?Doctor's answer:
The testicular length of an adult male is less than 3.5 centimeters, which can be diagnosed as testicular atrophy. In normal males, the testicular length is 3.6-6 centimeters, width 2.3-4 centimeters, and thickness 2-2.8 centimeters, with each testicle weighing 16-67 grams. You can compare the measurements with the above values. There may be some differences between the two testicles, but they will never be too large and will never be less than a 5 millimeter difference. If one is higher or larger, it is normal.
