If testicular insufficiency of testicular descent exists in two-year-old babies, immediate treatment such as surgery is recommended to avoid missing the best time for treatment and affecting the development of the reproductive system.
Due to abnormal hormone regulation during fetal period, or variations in anatomical structure, the testicles of infants stay in the abdominal cavity after birth and do not descend to the scrotum, which is called testicular descent insufficiency. For babies within one year of age, there can be no intervention for the time being, and some of the babies can descend to the correct position on their own with the development of their age.
If the testes have not descended beyond the age of one year, the use of human chorionic gonadotropin can be used to promote testicular descent.
For babies who have not descended by the age of 2 years, immediate surgical treatment is required. Commonly used clinical procedures include cavernous release surgery. If left untreated, complications such as testicular torsion necrosis may result.
Prompt medical consultation is recommended if incomplete testicular descent is suspected. The above medications need to be used under the guidance of a clinician.
