Hello everyone,
I hope you are well.
I was just wondering if there is anyone here who had orchidectomy performed and the testicular implant that has been inserted post the operation is too small. My regular testicular is 36/37ml the implant is 27ml. I have tried to discuss my concerns with the urologist post the procedure (different to the one who performed the operation) and he said that at the time of the operation they potentially didn’t have exact size to much. I don’t want to sound ungrateful but the dismatching difference is bothering me a lot. Massively impacting my sexual life.
Look forward to any advice you can give.
Thank you!
Bart
