How to judge testicular atrophy?

The testicles are an important part of the male external reproductive system. If there is a problem with the testicles, the male's sexual ability will decline, and in severe cases, male infertility may occur. Some people suffer from testicular atrophy due to disease infection or other factors. This disease can still be improved in the early stages. So, how to judge testicular atrophy? Let's take a look at the doctor's introduction.

1. Clinical manifestations

Patients with testicular atrophy may have one or both testicles atrophied, small and soft, occasionally hard, or slightly swollen and painful. In addition, patients may have different degrees of incomplete development of secondary sexual characteristics, such as breast development in men, delayed puberty, and even feminization of men. Currently, the internationally used testicular volume measuring device is commonly used to measure testicular volume. The size range of Chinese testicles is 15-25. In clinical practice, those with testicles smaller than 12 are often diagnosed as "testicular atrophy."

2. Symptoms and characteristics

1. When men suffer from testicular atrophy, their bodies will have a long-term fever and they will be more afraid of cold.

2. Male patients with testicular atrophy will feel pain in the testicles. This pain will spread to the male's scrotum, all the way to the thigh root, and finally to the male's groin area, and then present as radiating pain, which has a great impact on men.

3. Male patients with testicular atrophy will have enlarged and swollen testicles, and will feel pain when squeezing the testicles. If the testicles are purulent, the purulent accumulation inside the testicles will fluctuate when the testicles are touched.

Well, after reading the above introduction, I believe you have a preliminary understanding of how to judge testicular atrophy. Testicular atrophy is generally divided into two types: physiological atrophy and pathological atrophy. The former is a normal phenomenon and does not require treatment, while the latter requires surgery or traditional Chinese medicine treatment, otherwise it will affect the quality of life.
