What Is The Treatment For Undescended Testis?
Hello Doctor,
I am of 24 and, I am suffering from undescended testis (left side) but I have been aware of it only 3-4 years back, before that I was not so aware of it.
Could u please let me know what treatment is suitable for me?
Do I face any sexual problem because of it in future?
If surgery is the only way to treat, do I face any sexual problem after the surgery?
Can it be cause of Premature Ejaculation or Erectile Dysfunction?
Please note, I had had surgery of Hernia (right side) before 6 years.
Please suggest me what do I do because I am mentally very much disturbed due to this.

Hi,
There is no link between hernia surgery and undescended testis. Undescended testis may cause premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction. Surgery is the only option for the treatment for undescended testis, then only you can run your normal life without any sexual problems.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. S. R. Raveendran, Sexologist
