Does having only one testicle affect fertility?

Patient's question:

Does having only one testicle interfere with fertility?

Doctor's answer:

The function of the testes is to produce androgens and sperm. Even if only one testicle remains, as long as its function is normal, it will not interfere with fertility. However, if one testicle is normal while the other is cryptorchid, it will interfere with sperm production, potentially leading to male infertility. In such cases, surgical treatment at a relevant hospital is necessary, and traditional Chinese medicine can also be used as a supplementary treatment.
