An ayurvedic doctor says he can treat my undescended right testicle that's still up in my abdomen without surgery should I trust this approach or is surgery the only real option? I'm worried about risks if I delay proper treatment

With hormone treatment, your child is given shots of a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin. This could cause the testicle to move to the scrotum. But hormone treatment often is not recommended, because it's much less effective than surgery.

I've noticed this strange discomfort and occasional pain in my right testicle after I masturbate. It's become a bit of a concern because I usually do it once a day, sometimes twice. Could this be from doing it too much, and should I be worried about this? Is there anything I can do to stop it from happening?

Experiencing vague pain or discomfort in the right testicle can be a concerning symptom. It is possible that excessive masturbation may be contributing to this issue. To prevent further discomfort, you can try reducing the frequency of masturbation and ensuring proper lubrication during the act. Additionally, wearing supportive underwear and avoiding activities that put pressure on the testicles may help alleviate the discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

It's understandable to feel concerned about this.
