Why does my scrotum always sag?

Many men will find that they have the problem of scrotal sagging. The causes of this problem are mainly divided into two categories. One is a normal physiological phenomenon. If a man is too tired or the temperature of the perineum is too high, this situation will occur. The other is a pathological phenomenon. Diseases such as orchitis and prostatitis can cause this symptom. Below, I will introduce you to the relevant knowledge of scrotal sagging!

1. Is scrotal sagging normal?

When a man has scrotal sagging, we first need to see what causes it. Some cases are related to excessive fatigue and high perineal temperature, which can be relieved after improving the symptoms of fatigue and high temperature. Some cases are related to diseases such as orchitis and prostatitis, which can only be relieved after the primary disease is treated.

2. What causes scrotal relaxation and testicular sagging?

1. Normal physiological state: Testicular ptosis is a normal phenomenon. It is an automatic protective function of the body to protect sperm. Hot weather will naturally increase the temperature of the testicles, which will cause sperm to die. Therefore, the scrotum sags to dissipate heat. On the contrary, when the weather is cold, the scrotum automatically shrinks to keep the testicles at a certain temperature.

2. Pathological testicular ptosis is mainly seen in patients with varicocele, where varicose veins are often seen on the surface of the scrotum. If the testicles do not retract after the temperature is lowered, treatment is required.

3. What should I do if my scrotum is loose and my testicles are sagging?

1. The scrotum should droop under the action of gravity. Don't be too nervous. You can have a color ultrasound examination to rule out the influence of disease. In daily life, pay attention to reduce masturbation as much as possible, eat less spicy food, and avoid strenuous exercise.

2. Severe testicular ptosis is likely to be caused by testicular cysts, scrotal hydrotestis, or varicocele. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination to make a clear diagnosis and treat the symptoms in a timely manner.

Some friends may have misunderstandings about the swelling and contraction of their scrotum. At this time, do not worry about sexual ability or fertility. In fact, these worries are unnecessary. When male friends encounter the above situation, they should go to a regular andrology hospital for relevant examinations in time. After the cause is identified, targeted treatment should be carried out to avoid delaying the disease. Of course, paying attention to personal hygiene care, quitting bad habits, paying attention to exercise and a reasonable diet are the ultimate ways to maintain good health.
