One of the checks a newborn goes through before they leave the hospital is to see if both of their testicles have descended. And most boys, have descended testicles at birth, though it is still considered normal for a testicle to be undescended up to 1 year old. After 1 year old, the boy should see a doctor to see if it can be corrected.
There is a condition where men have testicles that do come down into the scrotum but retract easily, this is called retractile testicles, but it needs to be diagnosed in person by a physician.
But in general, if a child hasn't had his testicles descend after 1 year of age, he needs to be seen right away. There are increased risks of sterility and testicular cancer for boys whose testicles stay in the abdomen too long. This is a condition called cryptorchidism, and is often corrected surgically.

Which is the most effective way to descend while maintaining orientation and attempting equalization of the ears?
The most effective way to descend while maintaining orientation and attempting equalization of the ears is to descend slowly and steadily, equalizing your ears every few feet by gently blowing against pinched nostrils. It's important to stay relaxed and maintain proper buoyancy control to prevent rapid or uncontrolled descents. Practicing good diving techniques and equalization methods will help you descend safely and comfortably.
What does it mean if your testicle changes in size and shape?

Can a girl crush a testicle under her bare heel?
No, it is not physically possible for a girl to crush a testicle under her bare heel. Testicles are protected by the scrotum, which is a tough and elastic sac that helps shield them from external force. Additionally, the testicles are located within the scrotum, which is designed to withstand pressure and protect the delicate tissues inside. Any attempt to crush a testicle in this manner would likely result in severe pain and injury to the person attempting it.
What does it mean when your balls are tight?
"Tight balls" may refer to a condition known as testicular torsion, which is a medical emergency where the spermatic cord becomes twisted, cutting off blood flow to the testicle.

Why does your 2yr old cult horse only show 1 testicle?
A Cryptorchid is a male horse who has at least one testicle that was retained in the abdomen. Normally a colt's testicles will descend or "drop" at about 1 year, and a ring (Inguinal ring) closes above it to keep it in the scrotum. Sometimes the ring closes and leaves the testicle in the abdomen instead of the scrotum.
Can a testicle go up and stay inside the body?
Yes, a testicle can retract into the body, a condition known as "testicular retraction." This can happen due to temperature changes, physical activity, or reflex responses. In some cases, if a testicle does not descend properly, it may lead to a condition called "cryptorchidism," where the testicle remains in the abdominal cavity or inguinal canal, potentially requiring medical intervention. However, if the testicle stays inside the body long-term, it may require evaluation by a healthcare professional.
What is the name of operation for undescended testicle?
Well, it depends there are two. 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. The other is orchiectomy, which is the surgical removal of the testicle. This must be done if the testicle has been in the abdomen too long since an undescended testicle can cause testicular cancer.

Can a male with only one testicle be bred?
Yes he can sire pups, but this is a genetic problem and he WILL pass it on. This can be passed from both the sire and the dams side. Also the other testicle is not missing, it is retained internally and has failed to descend into the scrotum. Any vet will strongly advise you to have him neutered, as he will be highly susceptible to testicular cancer . It is not just poodles that this happens to, but all breeds
What are the potential risks and treatment options for unilateral cryptorchidism in cats?
Unilateral cryptorchidism in cats, where one testicle does not descend into the scrotum, can lead to complications like testicular cancer and infertility. Treatment options include surgical removal of the undescended testicle or hormone therapy to stimulate descent. Regular monitoring and early intervention are important to prevent potential risks.
