SUMMARY

A 28-year-old male with a history of undescended testicles seeks advice on the possibility of surgical intervention to bring a second testicle into the scrotum. Previous surgery at age four resulted in one testicle descending, but the second remains positioned between the scrotum and groin. The consensus among forum participants emphasizes the necessity of consulting a qualified surgeon for a proper assessment and personalized medical advice, as online forums cannot provide accurate diagnoses.

I'm a 28 yr old male & had undescended testicles on birth. A surgery was done at the age of four and half yrs & one testicle dropped down to the scrotum. Now I can feel the other testicle stuck in between the scrotum & the groin area. Is there a possibility to bring back the second testicle into the scrotum with the help of a surgery?? Pls advice me on what I should do since I'm hoping to get married at the end of next year.

Please consult a surgeon. There is nobody on an on-line forum that can assess your condition and offer advice. You need an assessment from a real doctor who can examine you and discuss your options.

Good luck.

Agreed. Note that it is against PF rules to provide medical diagnoses. Please visit a doctor who can examine you and give a proper diagnosis.
