I'M HOPING TO FIND OUT IF THERE'S A SOLUTION FOR ASCENDING TESTICLES? I NOTICED A COUPLE YEARS AGO ONE OR BOTH WOULD OCCASIONALLY ASCEND. NOW IT'S TO THE POINT THEY SEEM TO BE ASCENDED MORE OFTEN THAN NOT. I THOUGHT I HAD A HERNIA BASED ON WHAT I WAS TOLD BUT APPARENTLY THAT'S NOT THE CASE. I'M HOPING YOU CAN TELL ME THERE IS A CAUSE AND THAT IT HAS A SOLUTION?

Every adult man has testicles that ascend up to the body. They pull up there under several circumstances:
When they experience cold....
when they are threatened with pain...
when they are in the risk of getting crushed during sex...
or when the cremastory reflex is triggered by touch along the inner thigh or scrotum.

I assume you are trying to describe something abnormal, that the testicles have actually pulled up INTO the body cavity.
This happenes when the opening that the testes descended through does not completely close. In some cases, they can get "stuck up there".
This would be a serious problem. However, doctor can treat this IF it is the case. Only a doctor had determine if you need some treatment along these lines.

Second, if you feel your testes are too high, try sitting in a warm/hot bath for a quarter of an hour (not so hot to burn you) and this will relax your scrotum and testicles enough that they should be hanging pretty low. The best way to coax them back down is through heat...and to control their temperature, the supporting cord or structures should relax enough to lower dramatically.

Goodluck.

Thank you.
No thankfully there not stuck up there. Strange as it may sound, I just saw a doctor who specializes in this department earlier this week, at least I would hope so based on what he did. It was just a coincidence that this started to really concern me by the time I saw him. I had no idea going in that he would be handling my balls or sticking his finger in my butt. I'm glad I didn't know! Though based on what you've said, maybe he sucks? He said there's nothing you can do to about it? I sure hope his really bad at what he does..! I'm going to give the hot bath a try. I appreciate your advice. Thanks again.

Hang on there.
Just because the doctor felt your scrotum or testicles and also inserted a finger into your anus is no reason to discount him.

Everything you describe is appropriate medical examination technique. You may have been unprepared for a prostate exam (digital/rectal exam) however it is a normal, regular exam procedure that we unfortunately do not tell our young men to expect. It is critical for catching early prostate cancer or problems, and should not be overlooked. Far from being critical of your doctor, I think he is very credible...and if he has told you there is nothing to be done, I would honor his assessment and advice.

My advice to set in a warm/hot bath (hot tub or otherwise) was solely to give you some relief to see the testicles descend and swing more freely. It will NOT keep them from ascending whenever they are cold, threatened or stroked. Sorry if I mislead you.

No I understand. I do believe what the doctor did was as per procedure. I just didn't at all want to believe his advice. It seems my testicles are presently undecided as to where they would like to reside. At least part of time there where they should be but not as warm or low as they used to be.
You sound like an educated man. I have a theory as to why this might be happening. I'm a chronic pain patient and due to the medications I take, I feel awful in the winter and have no energy an feel sickly. So I'm prescribed Adderal which is an Amphetamine.
The side affects from which as much as I hate to not admit make it hard not to masturbate to often and takes far to long. Do you think they may be hiding due to abuse?
Thanks for your opinion.

Testicles hiding due to abuse?
Just from masturbation? I doubt it. Assuming that you are not abusing them... or causing yourself pain in your masturbation routine.

I can't comment on the effects of Adderal, as I am not familiar with it nor the conditions for which it is prescribed.
I would urge you to consult your doctor on any effects or side effects of this drug.

Good luck.

Yeah the word abuse was just for humors sake. I'm not into anything barbaric or bondage like.
Adderal is a pharmaceutical amphetamine. Similar to speed. In fact if you were tested for meth-amphetamine this will show you as positive. The masturbation affect has greatly diminished but the problem remains. It just seems so peculiar, no reason or something to cause it. There down as I speak but I know it's temporary. I guess I'll get my G.P's. opinion again. I've had him check them before because I thought I had a hernia due to the same reason. So apparently this has been around for years, a decade in fact, but never as frequent as it's been lately. Does that tell you anything? Unfortunately the bath had no effect.

Oh bye the way, what is HTML & BBCode?
Thanks again..!

HTML is a term for computer coding.



BBCode must have been a term I coined for computer bulletin boards.



Let us know what you GP tells you. I'm curious and we could all benefit from what you learn.

You should see a urologist. This is one of their areas of specialty. If a testicle retreats but can come back down it is called retractile testicle. If it retreats and stays it is called ascending testicle. There are quick surgeries for both if necessary. So yes, there is something you can and should do about it if it becomes more of an issue.

This happened to me I would recommend seeing a urologist. Basically what happened with me was my testicle had no tether to my scrotum so it would ascend and decends regularly. Unfortunately this led to a testicular tortion and surgery was required but all was good.I'm unaware of the procedure I underwent but it involved suturing the testicle to the scrotum

I know it's been forever but was the suturing of the testicular to the scrotum painful recovery period?

I'm not that guy you replied too, but I had this procedure done today around 1:30. It is called orchiopexy. And no, so far there's been really no pain. They give you painkillers during the OP through IV and prescribe painkillers for you to take home afterwards as well. So, I'm pretty much numb at the moment. There has been a few sharp pains if I make an odd movement, but all you can do is try and avoid that.

I saw my urologist specialist, as well both or either testicle will get pulled up, ascending, with great pain like I was kicked there, he suggested to surgically tie the testicle to the side wall of the scrotum, but advised not because it would still want to get pulled up by the creamaster muscle, and would still continue to give pain, he advised me to continue taking my t3, pills when the pain got overwhelmed. I think short of removing the full testicle would most likely cure the discomfort. In my case I have already removed both my epidymides from each testicle.the only reason to keep the testicles is most likely the hormone production is my only thought. I wish there was a better solution, I just hate these constant flare ups of testicle pain .

Don't know if this will get to you because it's been to so long. However if you suck your gut in can have an impact on how you dangle. Try not to suck in so much and it should get better. Been doing that for the last couple days and it's helped.
