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.
