  1. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    The prostate information was from another study, which was the relation between varicoceles and prostate enlargement. The veins exiting the scrotum connect with the blood supply of the prostate - and when the veins above this are dilated, the blood flows more easily into those of the prostate...

  3. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    The study was pretty solid and showed testosterone raising by 100-200 on average, that's significant. It is because your balls are producing it, but it is slow to move around your body, the bloodflow isn't carrying it away from your testicles as well as it should. Another study showed 30 times...

  4. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    Good attitude. What is the name of the doctor/surgery in Canada? I think you are right, helping the body produce testosterone naturally is the best, so do all you can for that first. Diet, lifestyle, exercise. Yoga sounds useful as I've heard stretches help, and can free up trapped bloodflow...

  5. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    Can occur without obvious symptoms in some cases, particularly in those who have been vaccinated. It's rare until you have it. In Europe this year there are a lot of cases, same with tuberculosis. He says he had a blood test so he mustn't have had it. Funny that the doctor gave no reason for his...

  6. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    I said it and I had reason to, your insult comes from ignorance. There has been an outbreak of mumps in the last year, and two people I know have had it in the last six months, one of which had testicular inflammation. Mumps can occur without traditional symptoms in some people, and is from the...

  7. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    Try not to worry too much about what hasn't happened. Relax and find a way to reduce your stress. The study I read about said on average, testosterone levels increased by about 100-200 points after varicocele surgery. Fertility was significantly increased too. They say to wait a few months...

  8. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    Haven't had mine fixed yet, I also have a small hernia. Both need good surgery. It would be good if the other dude has recovered. Weird that antibiotics seemed to help at first. Some pelvic infections, prostate too, can be persistent. If there is a varicocele though, especially grade 3, it needs...

  9. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    Try all the options you can before TRT. Think positively. Read up on foods which boost testosterone, and lifestyle changes, if you haven't already. It can make a significant difference. You said you had flu like symptoms - then your testicle swelled up - the mumps virus is related to the flu...

  10. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    I think that there is some commonality between these endocrine problems, stress and varicoceles that might not have been researched yet. Too many men with this problem and not enough answers as to why it is happening or how to solve it.

  11. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    From what I've read, having the varicocele repaired with microsurgery can increase test by up to 200 points, as well as improving fertility. There's a new study showing it also prevents/reverses prostate swelling. Talk to some different urologists about surgery.

  12. Low total testosterone but normal free testosterone

    Ask an endocrinologist about which test to take. They gave me a diabetes test, I don't know the name exactly but it was to check sugar absorption. First they took some blood, having fasted overnight. Then I had to drink a high glucose solution, wait 1 hour, another blood extraction, wait a...

  13. Low total testosterone but normal free testosterone

    Do you have any clue of why your normal testosterone is so low? How do you feel, any signs of low testosterone - sexual problems, fatigue, weakness. If you feel alright, perhaps the doctor is right, and your testosterone is just being used.

  15. Doc wants HCG therapy for low test

    Do any of the effects stay after you stop the dosage?

  16. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    It could be what happened. With the HCG if you go for that, ask the doctor about medicines which keep the oestrogen down too, maybe a combination, or a lower or higher dose is necessary. I think now your varicocele has been fixed, the rest of you can be repaired more completely.

  17. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    Hi tm450, thanks for your detailed response. Some of what you say has been mentioned as possibilties by the urologists/endodrinologists/generalists I have seen. Though there does not seem to be a great deal of consensus among doctors on this subject. I can however state what happened, and what...

  18. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    I have thought that I need a pelvic mri scan too, to see what is messed up. I don't remember the other medicine, I am sure I saved the website link somewhere, but I haven't found it again so far. It was a year or so ago - the guy posted a daily update on a forum for months detailing his progress...

  19. Sudden testicle shrinkage. No libido, fatigue. Varicocele?

    Good that you feel generally better in terms of energy. Have you thought about pelvic floor muscle tightness? I read it can be a factor. Do you have any pain or discomfort at all. One guy I read about followed his varicocele surgery with a self treatment of two drugs - HCG and another one, one...
