Is It Possible That One Epididymis Bigger Than Other ?

I m looking for some clarification. Does the epididymis join the testis at both the top and the bottom? And also would it be possible for the head of one epididymis to be larger, as in double the size, than that on the opposite testis? Trying to put my mind at ease. Thank You.

welcome to hcm
u cant appreciate the the course of epididymis with testis on examination unless there is some abnormality..the joining is at the top..if the size is double than the other since birth then it is normal..if u have found it recently it could be an infllamation..get an examination done if so..
