Testicles swollen like eggs

The male testicles are very important to men, because a boy with testicles is considered a real man. The male testicles contain male secretions, but in daily life, boys nowadays sometimes do not pay attention to environmental hygiene, which will cause problems with the position of the male testicles. Because it is a private part, many men are embarrassed and at a loss. They want to go to the hospital for a physical examination and worry that they will be digested. So what is the reason for the problem of testicular swelling? Let's take a look.

If a man's testicles are very small, it can cause infertility in children. Therefore, caring for men's testicular health should start from birth, and the three key periods should not be ignored.

When it comes to infertility, many people blame the problem on sperm, but don't try to find the root cause. In fact, the size of the testicles determines whether you are a "good father". This is because there are seminiferous tubules in the testicles that produce sperm. Generally speaking, the size of the testicles affects the level of testosterone in men. Within the range of normal testicle size, the larger the testicles, the higher the testosterone, and vice versa.

Generally speaking, the testicle size of a normal white man is 15~25ml on one side, the testicle size of a white man is about 20~30ml, and the testicles of African men are larger. If it is less than 12ml, it is called "small testicles", which is a psychological distortion and may lead to low spermatogenesis. Smaller testicles will lack fertility. Therefore, female friends must not pursue "small balls", because the smaller the testicles, the greater the possibility of no sperm, and the lower the probability of conceiving the next generation.

How to know the normal size of male testicles?

What is the normal size of the testicles? When measuring the volume of the testicles accurately, you should use your thumb and middle thumb to squeeze the testicles into the subcutaneous tissue of the scrotum to clearly expose the volume contour of the testicles. After removing the epididymal cyst, you can make a relatively accurate measurement. When measuring the volume of the testicles accurately, you can use a vernier caliper to accurately measure the longitudinal axis, transverse axis and thickness of the testicles, and then calculate the volume of the testicles. If the volume of an adult's testicles is less than 10ml, it is a small testicle, and if it exceeds 25ml, it is a large testicle. Both are abnormal.

The reproductive function of men with normal testicles can be maintained for a long time. Some people think that the reproductive function will gradually weaken after the age of 55. In history, Picasso and Chaplin are typical examples of elderly people giving birth. Generally speaking, the testicles of men in their 50s are still very elastic and the volume of the testicles has not decreased. After the age of 60, the testicles become loose and the volume decreases before they gradually increase.

Caring for male testicles requires attention at three stages

Pregnancy stage

From birth to 2 years old, pay attention to observe whether there is "cryptorchidism". The testicles of boys are hidden in the abdomen and descend to the scrotum after birth. The working temperature of testicles is 2℃ lower than body temperature. If the testicles of male babies do not descend normally and continue to stay in the abdomen, they may be damaged by heat, which will not only lead to low or complete infertility in adulthood, but also a higher risk of testicular cancer. After the birth of a male baby, parents should pay attention to observe whether there is a cowpea-sized content in his scrotum. If the scrotum is empty, it should be treated as soon as possible.

Preschool

Pay attention to whether the child's androgen metabolism is normal. Of the two androgens, the metabolic level of adrenal hormone begins to increase at around seven years old, while testosterone begins to increase at ten years old.

Puberty

Generally, boys aged 10-12 years old begin to grow pubic hair, their testicles enlarge, and they begin to produce sperm. If a child's testicles are large on one side and small on the other, as long as the difference is not too big, it is normal. Parents should remind boys to pay attention to their own changes. In this stage, we should avoid mumps, also known as "mumps". Mumps virus can invade the testicles and cause damage to the seminiferous tubules. Scientific research shows that about 30% of men aged 13-18 who suffer from mumps will also suffer from orchitis.

Men should take good care of their testicles. It is best to clean the genitals once a day; reduce the frequency of cycling to avoid compression of the testicles; and those who have sex should pay attention to control to avoid testicular damage caused by improper sex.
