Is it normal to have hair on the testicles?

In the whole life of men, there is a "character" that plays a very important role, and that is the male testicle. It looks like two "chestnuts", "settled" in the scrotum. The male testicle is a key organ in the human body that maintains male reproductive function and sexual characteristics. If the testicles of adult men are too large or too small, it will more or less affect the reproductive function and should be taken seriously. So is it normal to have hair on the testicles?

Is it normal to have hair on the testicles?

If there is a hair-like structure in the testicular tissue, it is an abnormal condition and the possibility of testicular teratoma should be considered. However, to see whether there is a hair-like structure in the testicle, the skin and tunica vaginalis on the surface of the testicle must be cut open before the testicle can be dissected out to observe whether the testicle is hairy or has other tissue structures. If it is impossible to observe whether there is a lot of hair in the testicle through the epidermis, there are hair follicles on the scrotal skin on the surface of the testicle, and there may be hair growing on the skin. This is a normal physiological structure and not an abnormal structure, and no treatment is needed.

However, if hairy structures are found on the testicles during the operation, it is recommended to perform a cryo-biopsy during the operation. If it is confirmed to be a teratoma, then it is necessary to consider the removal of the testicles for treatment, because teratoma is a type of testicular tumor. However, if only hair grows on the skin on both sides of the testicles, it is normal hair distribution in the scrotum and does not require any treatment. It is a completely normal condition.

Are all male testicles the same size?

In normal men, the size of the testicles on both sides is not exactly the same. According to the survey, the right testicle is slightly larger than the left. The length, width and thickness of the testicles are measured, and the average right is 3.38cm X 2.37cm X 1.78cm, and the average left is 3.30cm X 2.27cm X 1.71cm. Even for people of the same age, the size of the testicles is quite different. However, in adult men, the volume of the testicles is more than 15ml, and its function is normal. The measurement method of male testicles is very simple, especially the precise measurement comparison method is easier to operate. The specific method is: the precise measurement of the volume of male testicles is different in volume, and the oval lumps of testosterone are 1-25.

When measuring, pull up the testicle to be measured, tighten the scrotal skin, and compare the measured volume with the testicle one by one. The volume of the measured volume that is closest to the testicle size is the testicular volume. Knowing the normal size of your testicles is helpful for timely treatment of diseases. The testicles of ordinary people are not the same size, but the difference is generally not large. If the size of the testicles on both sides was basically the same in the past, and one side of the testicle suddenly enlarged recently, you should go to the hospital for examination immediately.
