Testicles are only the size of quail eggs

The part of the male reproductive organ that can produce sperm. Also called testis. The human testicle is also called ectopic testis. Many men are very concerned about their testicles. Some testicles are only the size of eggs, fearing that it will affect their sexual function. So what is the normal size of testicles?

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 male testicles are measured, and the right average is 3.38cm, 2.37cm, and 1.78cm, and the left average is 3.30cm, 2.27cm, and 1.71cm. Even for people of the same age group, the size of the testicles is quite different. However, in adult men, if the volume of the testicles is more than 15ml, their function is normal.

If the male testicles are small, there should be no problem as long as there are no symptoms such as testicular prolapse, frequent urination, urinary urgency, inability to hold urine, and difficulty urinating. The penis is not large and is about 11CM when erect, which is within the normal range. If you are worried, you can carefully observe the state of your semen, whether it is granular, not vaporized, etc. If there is no abnormality, there is no problem. Generally speaking, frequent ejaculation 2-3 times in a month without ejaculation is normal. If the frequent ejaculation is too frequent, or there is frequent ejaculation in the case of normal sexual life, as well as frequent ejaculation when awake, they are all abnormal.

If the small testicles are caused by insufficient estrogen levels, it is recommended to go to the hospital to check the estrogen levels and take medication based on the test results, taking the medication under the specific guidance of a doctor.

Some people are born with one side of the testicle underdeveloped, which is mainly manifested by a small testicle on one side and soft texture, such as juvenile testicles, while the other side of the testicle will have compensatory expansion, larger than normal people, so the size of the testicles on both sides is different, but this situation is generally rare. In addition, trauma can also cause the difference in the size of the testicles on both sides. For example, trauma can cause testicular capillary rupture and abscess, resulting in obstruction of testicular blood supply and testicular atrophy, so the affected side is smaller than the opposite side.

The mumps virus can damage the squamous epithelial cells of the seminiferous tubules of the male testicles, causing one side of the male testicles to shrink. Of course, there are many reasons for the difference in size of the testicles on both sides, but you should be careful not to think that other symptoms in the scrotum are the cause of the testicle size. You should distinguish the cause to prevent misdiagnosis.
