yes
This is normal; the testicles are not usually the same size.
No, one testicle always hangs lower than the other. That's normal.
Yes. I had both testicles removed after an injury. My testicles wasn't functioning and I was in alot of pain. I opted to have the testicles removed after it was offered to me by my doctors. I do take testosterone injections weekly and I function ok. It is difficult in the beginning, but after a year, I'm back to normal.
yes. one is supposed to be in the shape of a pear. the other should look like a small dog.
Orchioplexy is the surgical procedure to move an undescended testicle into the scrotum and permanently fix it there. It is mainly done in children under the age of two, since the testicles are supposed to be permanently descended by the age of one.
There are replacement testicles available. There will be a slight difference in their feel but would appear normal.
"The average testicle size after puberty measures up to around 2 inches long, 0.8 inches in breadth, and 1.2 inches in height." - Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testicle
Almost all men have testicles of different sizes; this is completely normal. However, if one testicle is strikingly larger than the other, or if you notice any kind of change in size in either testicle, see a doctor ASAP.
Is having just one testicle normal, no. Normal is men have two testicles, but it does happen. Sometimes due to an accident or illness, sometimes a boy is born with only one developed testicle and as long as it is healthy, your sex life and fertility will not be effected. Make sure you see a doctor to ensure you don't have an undescended testicle or a hernia. If the second testicle is trapped in your abdomen, it can be strangled and the one testicle you can see could end up slipping through the hernia too.
Several factors can affect the size of a newborn's testicles, including genetics, gestational age, and hormonal influences. In general, newborn testicles are typically small, with an average size of around 1-2 centimeters. It is important for healthcare providers to monitor and assess the size of a newborn's testicles to ensure they are within the normal range for their age.
It is very unlikely, though it is possible, for a man to only be born with one testicle. More commonly there were two testicles at birth and either one has been removed or that it is in the body but not located in the normal place. In conditions such as cryptorchidism, ectopic testicle, or retractile testicle, the testicle is present in the body, but may not be where you expect it. Testicles are not usually removed in the treatment of infection, but there are other reasons such as cancer, or testicular torsion where the testicle has to be removed for medical reasons. There are also a few conditions where a genetically male person will have rudimentary or non-functional testicles, such as Turner's syndrome or androgen insensitivity syndrome, but these conditions are fairly uncommon and the man would have several other physical attributes that would be abnormal than just the missing testicle. But in any particular man, if you think he only has one testicle is to ask him.
Orchiopexy means a surgical fixation of one or two testicles into a normal position. It is an endoscopic procedure usually done before the first year of life.
