I'm a bit concerned because I've noticed that one of my testicles, the left one, hangs lower than the right one. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?

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.

My father has been dealing with frequent urination and a burning sensation when he pees. We saw a doctor who recommended tests like Haemogram, CUE, PSA, HBA1C, and an ultrasound scan of the pelvis and abdomen. Everything looked fine except the PVR was 500ml. Now they've done a cystoscopy and are suggesting TURP surgery. Is this the right time to go for surgery, or should we wait and try more medications? Can this be managed with just medicines?

if conservative therapy fails ,TURP is advised.
