Undescended Testicle
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
An undescended testicle, also known as cryptorchidism, occurs when one or both testicles do not reach their usual position within the scrotum. Normally this descent happens before or shortly after birth.
How it is identified: on examining the scrotum, the absence of one or both testicles is noticed, which may be located higher up, along the path toward the scrotum.
Why it is worth addressing? Monitoring it is important for the health and development of the area, so detecting it early is useful.
Recommended specialist: a urologist is the professional who examines and follows up on this condition. If a testicle is noticed to be out of place, discussing it with them allows you to receive appropriate guidance on the steps to follow.
