Hi i'm 15 years old and i need help with these questions. I have a few questions about jacking off. Is jacking off too much a problem because my balls are getting really small and i am worried that they will disappear. Can and will they disappear? And if so will they grow back? please Help and thank you :)

Hi Guest,

Your testicles should not get small from masturbating.  If anything, while you are masturbating they should get bigger from vasocongestion (more blood).

Synthetic hormones, steroids, can cause them to shrink.  They won't disappear.

Masturbating is NOT harmful.  Even if you don't masturbate you'll still get erections and have nocturnal emissions.  You're always making sperm.

Hope it helps.

And what is synthetic hormones and how does it affect my testicles?

Steroids, drugs usually used to help build muscle mass can shrink your testicles. Some asthma meds contain steroids.
Are you taking anything?

Really, they should NOT be shrinking at all.

I wish I could give you a better answer but at 15 they should be growing, not shrinking. Short of steroids, and I'm glad you aren't using them, the only other reason that they may shink is due to testicular torsion. Basically, the blood would be cut off by the testicals twisiting in your scrotum. You'd have a LOT of pain in that case and likely not even be able to walk or stand up.

I don't think you have that.

I'd suggest you see a urologist for an exam IF you are positive they are shrinking (atrophy).
