Does hidden testicles affect fertility?

The testicle is a very important male reproductive organ. Male semen needs a certain component in the testicle to be composed. Many people will have some testicular diseases, and cryptorchidism is a relatively common condition. Fertility is something that people pay special attention to. People have great doubts about whether cryptorchidism will affect fertility. Let's take a detailed look at whether cryptorchidism affects fertility.

Cryptorchidism can affect fertility. Literature studies have shown that bilateral cryptorchidism causes infertility in more than 50%, and unilateral cryptorchidism causes infertility in more than 30%. Cryptorchidism means that the testicles do not descend normally into the scrotum, but remain in the retroperitoneum, inguinal canal or at the entrance of the scrotum. The contraction function of the scrotum can regulate the temperature of the scrotum, which is 1.5-2℃ lower than the normal body temperature, and can effectively maintain the normal spermatogenesis function of the seminiferous tubules of the testicles. Cryptorchidism is affected by high temperatures for a long time, leading to sperm disorders, so cryptorchidism will affect spermatogenesis. It is recommended that early surgical treatment should be performed for cryptorchidism.

If patients with cryptorchidism are not treated in time, it will affect their future fertility. Therefore, the treatment of this disease should be discovered and treated early. The more timely the treatment, the better the patient's fertility will be restored in the future. At present, in our country, the best treatment for cryptorchidism is when the patient is one or two years old. If the time is delayed, the patient's future fertility rate will be lower.

Parents of patients with occult cornea should not worry too much. The cure rate of this disease is very high in our country. Doctors will provide targeted treatment for patients according to the severity of the symptoms of the children. Currently, it can be treated with drugs or surgery. The surgical treatment mainly uses minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery. The success rate of this operation is very high, and the patient's body will recover quickly.

If parents neglect to treat their children's cryptorchidism in time, the children will feel very painful when they grow up. It will directly lead to a decline in the patient's fertility and even cause infertility, which will have a great impact on the patient's spirit. Therefore, family members must be responsible for their children so that the child's disease can be treated as soon as possible. During the treatment, you must choose a regular hospital so that the child's body can recover.
