Hello my lovely agony aunts and uncles..

So I recently visited an old friend and we hooked up, the strange thing was that he only had one testicle (and it was very large).

Before visiting him I had not seen him for over a year, and before this time we hooked up frequently- he was my first and Im sure he had two testicles at this time, but cannot be sure...because I was so new to everything then I dont have any recollection...

I would love some advice to ease my worried head about this situation...hes very close to me but I didnt broach the subject when I was visiting and have n idea how to do so now...I just want to know if hes okay?

Daniel the love doctor agony auntWell the biggest(no pun intended) thing he has to worry about is Testicular Cancer. And if he's in doubt..he should check it out. :^)

No but in all seriousness, there are a variety of reasons that he may have one testicle...

1. He could've had or currently has Testicular Cancer. If he had it surgically removed, this may be the reason for his missing testicle. If he's not sure if he has it, he should really get checked by a doctor- and routinely perform self exams to check for lumps, abnormalities, etc.

2. Temperature. Temperature can affect a person's body. If cold is the issue, he should do something to stay warm. A raised/tight scrotum can give the illusion of having one testicle- and it could be because of the temperature. So by adjusting the temperature, this will enable him to have better blood circulation throughout his body, and allowing the testicles to hang more.

3. There's also a condition called Cryptorchidism. This means that one or both testicles do not descend into the scrotum. This is a condition that is usually caught at child birth. But if it's not spotted or corrected, one of the testicles will just wither away.

The good news is many men can still function in and out of the bedroom with one testicle. They also have the capabilities during intimacy to produce sperm/fertilize eggs and maintain erections.

Why don't you ask him? Nobody here can say what's up with that or why he only has one. Don't you find it a little weird to ask strangers about the testicle of your boyfriend?
