Can I have a baby after removing one testicle?

Men have two testicles. Removing one will not have a big impact on men, but whether it will have an impact on sexual life depends on the man's physical condition. After all, removing one testicle will cause some damage to the human body. Therefore, let's take a look at the impact of testicular removal on men.

Can you get pregnant after removing one testicle?

Normal men have two testicles. The functions of the testicles are:

First, it is used to metabolize androgen to maintain sexual characteristics and sexual desire, and at the same time it can ensure the growth and development of reproductive organs. Second, it is to produce normal sperm and maintain fertility. Under normal circumstances, men only need one testicle to maintain a relatively good fertility. Of course, compared with one testicle, the quality of sperm produced by two testicles at the same time will be better. Therefore, in most cases, as long as the quality of the two testicles themselves is OK, even if one is removed, it will not affect the patient's fertility. Even if one side of the testicle may be worse, it can even be used for artificial sperm extraction for in vitro fertilization, and normal pregnancy can still be achieved in the future.

If one side of the testicle is removed, the metabolism of testosterone is obviously reduced by half and the testosterone level in the blood is reduced, but even if one side of the testicle is removed, the other functions still exist, and over time, the excretion of testosterone will show some compensatory increase. Therefore, even if one side of the testicle is removed, most men can still have a normal erection, maintain complete male sexual function, and still pass on their genes. This proves that removing one side of the testicle will affect the couple's life, but if both sides of the testicle are removed, men basically cannot have a married life, which has a greater impact on men's physical and mental health.

The male testicle is the most important reproductive organ for men. It can produce sperm and metabolize male hormones. However, when the male testicle is diseased, it is very easy to cause a decrease in male sexual function and cause infertility. Because the male testicle is unilateral, if one side is removed, the other side of the testicle can still function normally, and it will not affect the male's sexual life and fertility. Men should go to the hospital clinic to check in detail whether their male testicles function normally. Generally, through B-ultrasound examination, semen analysis and estrogen tests, the actual function can be clearly determined. However, because male testicles are prone to obstruction, men should not only pay attention to the effects of unilateral testicle removal, but also pay attention to the problems of testicular atrophy and brittleness.

For men, removing one testicle has already caused a great psychological blow. If both testicles are to be removed, it is unbearable for any man. In this case, boys should distinguish their current situation and ensure a greater degree of reproductive function for themselves.
