How do I know if my balls have dropped?

---

I am 25 and have very small genetals.I do not even know if I have grown at all from the age of 14-ish.Is there any hormone treatment that may stimulate the growth spurt that I missed as an adolescent?

The testicles usually descend before birth or within about 9 months there after. If you can feel the testes in the scrotum then your balls have dropped.What do you consider small?I know of no hormone therapy to stimulate growth of the genitals. Furthermore, I would be extremely wary of any kind of therapy, hormone or otherwise, that claimed such abilities.There are surgical procedures and methods of ball stretching and the like but I for one wouldn't want to risk injury to my boys over my issues of vanity. More than likely what you've got is more than enough to satisfy any partner.

What's the scrotum?My testes are very small, sure I can feel them but they are about the size of grapes, not the size of plums like most men have.

The scrotum is the bag like formation of skin below the penis that the holds the testicles.

You have nothing to worry about most men I've heard of, myself included, have grape sized testicles or there about. I don't know how somebody would walk if they were plum sized.

In this thread over a year ago, it was explained that normal testicle size is much closer to the size of a grape than a plum. For most men, a testicle the size of a plum would indicate a serious infection or some other pathology.You still have a distorted idea of what is normal.I would expect that by now you would have seen a doctor about this concern (as well as your many other concerns). I would expect that a doctor would have said the same thing about testicles that people here have expressed.My real concern is that you are lost in a swirl of fears hypochondriac symptoms, and your life is not functioning well. I asked you a long time ago about seeking psychological counseling. Have you made any progress on that front? I hope so, because you didn't sound very happy, and there's nothing to gain by being unhappy.

Most grapes here in Hungary are around 2 cm on the long side -- plums are more like 4--5 cm, which is much closer to what my testicles, and in fact, all other guys' testes I was allowed to see, are. Longitudinally, of course.But a 25 years old guy not knowing what the scrotum is, feels quite weird.

Hungarian fruit is apparently very small. Your grapes are the size of American peanuts, and your plums are the size of large white American grapes.According to David Quincy, M.D. (Palo Alto Medical Foundation):Quote:Normal adult male testicle size is 4.0 cm to 7.0 cm in the longest dimension. Testicle size less than 4.0 cm could indicate a hormone problem, and could affect fertility. That would warrant a visit to your doctor.

I'd recommend using proper measures then (Agri)Cultural differences could cause trouble.We have those huge grapes too, but they're not that common -- also, we have the huge strawberries (again around 4--5cm), but they're pretty damn tasteless compared to the "less foreign" smaller kind.

Well then, comparing things to the size of fruit is not very useful. It's like saying that something is "about the size of a penis".

thats odd because my dick is about the size of a penis

Is it the size of a newborn's penis? Or are you saying it's somewhere between 0.5 and 50 centimeters in length?

Does the expression "a penis not the size of a penis" have philosophic meaning?

This is not a hat.

Don't you mean "This is not a pipe"?

I was wearing a hat when I said that. Magritte was a wild man.

Yes, but how do I know if they are 4cm. Do you mean in width, girth or length or weight?Plus, I do not produce much semen so I could be infertile or have erectional dsyfunction or whatever Pele has.Also, my left testicle feels soft and much smaller in size than the right one. This could indicate testicluar cancer, something which I warned you would be the case on this very forum about 2 years ago.But you say doctors know best. Yawn.I am getting grey hairs and am always depressed. This is another symptom of cancer. I also only have 1 nipple. Which is quite funny, but again, it's not normal and it clearly indicates that something is very wrong.My body never grew after I took ACNE tablets Roaccutane at the age of 14. This drugs work by drying up hormones, but they obviously dried them up to much so they couldn't progress my growth any more...Oh, and did I mention I also have:1. phimosis2. curvature of the spine3. different coloured eyes4. black bags under my eyes5. crooked fingers6. a hairy back7. my bottom jaw is too big to fit in the skull so I have a permanent crossbite which cannot be corrected8. schizophrenia9. OCDAnd you wonder I am depressed?

Quote: But you say doctors know best. Yawn. Yawn... Have you even seen a doctor about these issues?

I was on the waiting list for one operation, but they took me off without telling me. Now I back at square one. Yawn indeed.

Yawnn... On teh list for a circumcision which has nothing to do with the issues you are complaining about. Can you answer the question??? Have you seen a doctor regarding the issues you have?

It is far too embarrassing to see a doctor about most of my problems. People like me cannot live normally; we have to hide away from society.
