The results vary. If you are being treated for testicular cancer, you will likely also be treated with hormones that will reduce the sex drive to a point where you won't care about sperm count. Once your treatment is over, it is quite possible that your sperm count will rise again, although obviously not to the previous level.

If you are concerned about fathering children, artificial insemination with your own sperm is an option in many cases.

Will a cryptorchid dog produce viable sperm?

This will depend upon the exact state of the testicles. If both testicles are retained within the body wall, the dog will be infertile and produce no viable sperm. If only one testicle is retained within the body wall and the other has descended into the scrotum, the dog will produce viable sperm but likely have a low sperm count. If only one testicle is retained but it is outside the body wall although not in the scrotum, the dog will produce viable sperm and may have a normal sperm count. However, cryptorchidism (retained testicles) is a highly inherited condition, and it is likely that the dog would pass this defect on to his offspring. For this reason, most veterinarians and responsible breeders will advocate for the dog to be castrated and removed from the breeding pool.
