Why do men have one high testicle and one low testicle?

For male friends, the biggest impact on physical and mental health is male diseases. Many men will find that one of their testicles is higher than the other. This often increases the psychological pressure on men. They don’t know what causes it and whether it will affect fertility and sexual ability. If we want to effectively relieve such symptoms, we must grasp the cause of the disease so as to better prevent and treat it. Let’s learn about the reason why men have one high and one low testicle.

What is the reason for a male testicle to be high and low?

Experts say that in general, one male testicle hangs lower than the other. The testicle of an adult male is 3.5-4.5 cm long, 2-3 cm wide, 1-2 cm thick, and weighs 10-15 grams per testicle. Generally, the left testicle is about 1 cm lower than the right testicle. If the difference is not big, it is normal. If the difference between the two testicles is a bit big, it should be taken seriously.

If the difference between male testicles is very obvious, it is an abnormal situation, which may be due to testicular dysplasia or testicular trauma. In addition, orchitis or epididymitis can also cause one testicle to be higher than the other. Therefore, once you find that your testicles are abnormal, you should go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible to clarify the cause and treat the symptoms to avoid causing greater harm.

Testicular Health

The testicles must be below body temperature to produce normal sperm. The testicles are first formed in the embryo, and during the embryonic development process, the testicles gradually begin to move down until they reach their final position. If some babies develop abnormally, and after they are born, their testicles have not descended to where they should be, surgery is required. If surgery is not performed, testicular cancer may occur. And it must be done early. If the age is over a certain level, the testicles may become too high and the man may lose his fertility. Similarly, if a man often wears tight underwear, the testicles are tightly wrapped in the underwear, and the temperature is the same as the body temperature, which will affect the quality and quantity of sperm, and thus affect reproductive ability.

When the weather is hot, the testicles will droop. When the weather is cold, the testicles will shrink and move closer to the body. When approaching orgasm, the testicles will also rise closer to the body due to muscle contraction.

The above is an introduction to why one male testicle is higher than the other. After understanding it, we all know that such symptoms are generally caused by acquired diseases or congenital reasons. Therefore, male friends must maintain good living habits in daily life. First of all, they must have a regular schedule, learn to release their stress appropriately and maintain a happy mood, and go to a regular hospital for examination if they feel unwell.
