BALLS!

. . . the other part of what makes us males. There's any number of penis groups here on TN: large penises and small ones; circumcised/ uncircumcised, foreskin restoration, etc. However, there's none that I'm aware of having to do with testes. I've titled the Group "Balls" since, aside from at the doctor's office, it's the term most frequently used in referring to...

I was raised not to talk about sex or nudity and you dont have sex until you are married. So now l am 60 years old never married and no kids. I thought l was normal until a doctors visit a few months ago
I could never stay hard for long and the doctor told me that my balls were underdeveloped so even if l did get married l would mot be able to have sex anyway. Even though l think of myself ad a bisexual l am only half a man

Don't think that makes you half a man. Lots of factors make someone a man. Physical size of his balls and the ability to create children are not requirements.

you never mentioned if doctor did hormone level test for testosterone levels . He should have, you don't have to have big testicles to make adequate amounts of testosterone and if you aren't, you could be put on HRT hormone replacement therapy . I would suggest you consult a Doctor of Endocrinology . With proper treatment you may be able to have normal sex . Even if you are sterile,,

i also was thrown for a loop at my last physical, first time seeing this Dr. the Dr was a man, i love exposing my big package infront of men, and i like strange men handling my cock and balls. as he was rolling my balls between his fingers, he told me my balls are getting smaller, i thought this odd, cause he had never seen my testicles prior, nor has he touched them.

have any of you heard the same?

I totally agree with this post. I hope many more men would go get their testosterone levels checked. I did and found out that it was very low. After taking the testosterone gel for several years my balls have gotten much smaller and they do not hang much at all now. But I am stronger, have more energy, enjoy good erections, have a better mood, not as quick to be grumpy, I can handle the cold much better, I have thicker skin so I dont get paper cuts when I got them almost every day and I am getting much hairier. I have a chest full of hair now. If you are able to see all my pictures you can see a couple that I posted before taking testosterone and have very little chest hair. I must have had low testosterone all my life. Taking testosterone can make a male sterile so be aware of the side effects of this drug.. I also experience pitting edema in my legs. Do the research men and see your doctors.
Small balls or anything else you call small doesnt make you any less of a man. Be a male of confidence one who embracing being male and is accepting of body but also be one that takes care of it that doesnt neglect it.
Embrace the camaraderie and brotherhood.

Well said Billy. I had been on Testosterone for years. My testosterone level had been very low for years. I had my GP check my testosterone level. He said it was low, but within normal limits. My testicles were large and firm...which means they were healthy. Many years later another doctor was questioning my testosterone levels and asked for the results from the test years earlier. Turns out my testosterone level at the age of 40, was not within normal limits. Seems my GP was not such an expert on that front. MY levels at 40 with the first test was at 180. 350 is the low end or the range for a man over 50. Since my testicles seemed healthy, nothing was done for nearly a decade. Turns out a brain injury damaged my pituitary gland. Although my testicles were healthy and could produce proper testosterone levels, my pituitary was not telling them to....resulting an a very low testosterone level.

Since I have been on testosterone, my testicles have shrunk down to about 1/4 size. Even so my mood, energy, weight and general life have drastically improved. Any side effects of the testosterone that may be in my future are far more desirable than the life I had when my testosterone level was far too low. I learned that taking HCG along with testosterone prevents testicular atrophy. It was too late for me because HCG does not reverse testicular atrophy.

Doing TRT the testicles will shrink. I am on TRT and have been for about 3 years now. I give myself 2 shot each week in the thigh. Testosterone is no different that taking vitamins to a degree. The common logic behind it is that if you give (substitute) the body something it has to produce, it will stop producing it once it recognizes the alternate source. The body is good about expending energy. Some doctors (not all) will tell you when you start taking TRT, the longer you take it, the more likely you body will stop producing Test and will not come back when you stop taking test. My endo mentioned it. As you age the testicles will shrink also. You can combat testicle shrinkage by using HCG which is by prescription. It is is a pregnancy hormone that causes the body to store test in the testicles. I have used it in the past and I periodically go back to it. It really does work. Also with the shrinkage, as men we go through Andropause. The testosterone declines requiring less storage and we go through the sweats and other fun stuff that the ladies do. It part of the aging process as I am finding. I know now in my 50's doing TRT, I have moved past all of the andropause stuff and I am the most fit I have historically been. I have a lot of energy, I am moody and I am always up beat and happy. I am at the gym 3 to 4 times a week. I am benching 225 at age 52. I am also doing 85lb one arm rows with dumb bells and even doing 600lb leg presses. This year I turned 52, so TRT much be doing something :)

As to some of the other stuff folks have mentioned. there are some side effects, Morning wood (like 20again) it can also wake you up in the night when the body hits it peak. You see things on the positive side... Excess energy, can be brutal, as you don't want to just sit for hours on end, at least that has been my experience.

For the gents interested in increasing testicle mass, check into the HCG, it really does work. I used the injectable version and had success.

I agree with Justbrad. There is more to a man than his balls
