What causes men's testicles to be soft?

If a man has soft testicles, it is likely that he has a reproductive system disease. Although it is a bit embarrassing, it is best to go to the hospital to check what causes this symptom, and then seriously treat it according to the doctor's advice to strive for early recovery. The following introduces the causes of testicular atrophy, so that when this situation occurs, you can first have a general psychological analysis and judgment.

The testicle is an important male reproductive organ, located in the scrotum, one on each side, and the left side is generally 1 cm lower than the right side. The testicle is slightly flattened oval, with a smooth surface, divided into inner and outer sides, front and back edges, and upper and lower ends.

Experts say that currently, the testicular volume is often measured with a universal testicular volume meter. The size of human testicles ranges from 15 to 25. In clinical practice, testicles smaller than 12 are often diagnosed as "testicular atrophy." In addition to measuring testicular volume, attention must also be paid to the texture of the testicles. If the texture of the testicles becomes soft, it indicates that the degree of damage is more serious. In addition, semen examination is also very helpful for diagnosis, but the most accurate method for diagnosing testicular atrophy is testicular biopsy.

Testicular atrophy:

One is viral infection, especially mumps virus invading the testicles.

The second is damage to the scrotum and testicles, especially damage to the blood vessels supplying the testicles.

The third is severe orchitis caused by bacterial invasion of the testicles.

Fourth, long-term exposure to radioactive substances without effective protection of the testicular area.

Fifth, endocrine disorders seriously interfere with the growth and development of the testicles.

Sixth, if you suffer from severe varicocele, testicular hypoxia, or damage by harmful substances, you need to go to the hospital for a check-up.

Testicular softness is very harmful. Knowing the above factors that cause testicular softness, we should pay attention to it to prevent male infertility. Therefore, those who suffer from testicular softness should go to a regular andrology hospital for clear examination and treatment.
