Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I have been experiencing strong discomfort in my lower body recently, so I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The examination results revealed that I have bilateral undescended testicles. Doctor, what is bilateral undescended testicles? Do I need treatment?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it should be considered as cryptorchidism, which is usually congenital and should have been present since birth. As a general rule, if the testicle has not descended by the age of one year, surgery is required to correct its position. Since you are already an adult, it is too late, and this may affect the testicle's ability to produce sperm. It is important to undergo surgery as soon as possible. After the surgery, you can check the quality of your sperm. If it is severely impaired, it may be difficult to conceive naturally.
