The testis is a slightly flat oval body with smooth surface, divided into inner and outer sides, front and rear edges, and upper and lower ends.
In normal men, the size of bilateral testicles is not exactly the same. According to statistics, the right testicle is slightly larger than the left testicle. Based on the length, width and thickness of the testicle, the average of the right testicle is 3.38cmX2.37cmX1.78cm, and the average of the left testicle is 3.30cmX2.27cmX1.71cm. Even in the same age group, the size of testicles varies greatly. However, in adult males, the testicular volume is more than 15ml, and its function is normal.
The testicular measurement method is relatively simple, especially the measurer comparison method. The specific method is as follows: the shape of the testicular volume measurer is different, and the oval hard substance of testosterone is 1-25 in turn. When measuring, pull up the testes, tighten the scrotal skin, and compare the testes with the testes one by one. The volume of the testes is the closest to the size of the testes. Knowing the size of your testicles when they are normal is conducive to timely detection of pathological changes. The testicles of normal people vary in size from side to side, but the difference is generally not too large.
If the size of testicles on both sides is basically similar in the past, and one side of testicles suddenly increases significantly in the near future, you should go to the hospital for examination in time. If one testicle is enlarged and accompanied by fever and local pain, it may be epididymitis or orchitis. If testicular enlargement is not accompanied by any symptoms, the possibility of testicular tumor should be considered, and timely examination should be carried out. Do not be careless.
