Patient's question:
It seems like I've had premature ejaculation for two months. I only have one testicle. Will this affect my sexual function?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Based on your description, there are two possible situations:1. You mentioned that you only have one testicle. This could be cryptorchidism. If the testicle is not in the scrotum, it is recommended to undergo a testicular descent surgery. Because if the testicle remains outside the scrotum for a long time, its function may be lost, or it may even lead to cancer. You are now 19 years old, and you should go to the hospital immediately for an examination to determine whether surgery is necessary.
2. You mentioned that you might have premature ejaculation. If a person occasionally fails to achieve sufficient erection or sexual duration during intercourse, it is not erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation. This may be related to environmental, psychological, or other factors. However, some people, when experiencing this, often suspect they have a sexual function disorder, overthinking and worsening their mental burden, which leads to even more disharmony in sexual life. Additionally, if you do not have regular sexual activity, it is normal to occasionally have one or two instances of this. So, there is no need to worry too much about it. Once you establish regular sexual activity in the future, your sexual experience and skills will naturally improve.
Overall, you should first address your cryptorchidism issue.
