testicle problem

  1. Hey blades i have a somewhat personal question but its begginning to bother me.

    <y left testicle is smaller than the right one. Yes is said it. No i am not a troll and this is embarrassing, but its true

    Is their any reson why this may be and what causes it?

    Anything can help, thanks.
     
  2. I had that for about 6 months when I was 8, then it sorted itself out. But I dunno about you, man:( I'm assuming you're around 19..
     
  3. It's actually quite normal for one testicle to be up to 20% larger than the other. Normally it's the left one for right-handers and the right one for left-handers. If, in fact, it's more than 20% larger, you should get it checked out. It's possible that the large one is accumulating fluid called hydrocele, which is normally harmless, but could lead to severe discomfort if it's not drained.
     
  4. True, i had anatomy and college and we discussed this... nothing to worry abt. If u feel worried abt it though, just see a dr so they can check it out. The piece of mind u would get from that is worth it. :)
     
  5. im a lefty. the smaller one(the left one) actually tends to be more painful to the touch than the other one.
     
  6. Has it always been like that or is it something that's happened recently? Although you're probably absolutely fine, I would go to my doctor if I was concerned about my genitals. That's one part of my body I'm especially attached to.
