how big are your testicles supposed to be to be considered normal? I'm concerned because mine are very small, length is about 1 inch or 2.5 cm, and width is about 1/2 inch, or 1.25 cm. Is this abnormal for a guy in his 20's? How big are everyone's balls?

Testicle size?

Never measured mine, but from what you describe... it does seem pretty small. Perhaps you should see a doctor. Are you fully developed?
-
What sdp said. Never measured either. Do you have any other problems shooting pains or anything? Probably just your physical make-up but would never hurt to ask the doc next time your in.

Not exactly your question but possibly helpful.
_Question
Does the fact that I have small testicles mean that I may have a low sperm count? Will the size of my testicles have any effect on trying to have a baby? I was on steroids for a while just after I was born -- could this have had an effect?
Answer
I think it is very difficult for you to judge the size of your testicles in comparison to others. There is a great deal of variety between men who have normal levels of male hormone and normal sperm counts. I don't think the fact that you were on steroids as a baby should have any bearing on your future in this respect.
You have grown tall, so it is likely that your testes were producing enough male hormone [testosterone] during your adolescence. If you went through puberty in the normal way and now have what seems to be normal sex-drive and erections, then it would seem unlikely that your testes are failing in any way.
This is something you should discuss with your own doctor, particularly if it continues to play on your mind. If you want to check your fertility, it might be possible to arrange a sperm count on a sample of your semen sent to a hospital laboratory.

no pains or anything, but my sex drive has always been real low, in fact, i've never really cared about sex at all except just so I'd fit in. Sex never really came up in social situations for me until I was in college so before then, I don't think it ever crossed my mind. I also read that if ur testes are smaller than 2.5 cm in length, ur tanner stage 1, prepubertal testes size, so I'm concerned something is wrong, don't know why I waited this long...

Something seems wrong. It seems that your testes are underdeveloped and you have a lack of testosterone. it would be wise to visit your doctor and/or an endocrinologist.

Agree with sdp, definitely, get to the doctor.

I think my testes are roughly the same size. But, even worse, my testes don't hang downwards - they seem to be just strapped up underneath my body.I don't think my testes have ever 'dropped' and I am concerned that I am undeveloped in that area, as I have quite a small penis as well (4.75" hard).I am 24 years old so I think another trip to the doctor is necessary.

Yeah sounds like it would be a good idea, hope everything works out for you.
