Whether or not to do surgery for cryptorchid penis should be determined according to the triggers. If the cryptorchid penis is caused by obesity, it may be able to heal by itself, so it does not need to do surgery for the time being, but congenital cryptorchid penis should be treated with surgery.
The cryptorchid penis caused by obesity may be relieved on its own with weight loss, especially for boys after the age of 12. The increased level of androgen in the body and the fast development of the penis will redistribute the fat and allow the cryptorchid penis to heal on its own, and such a case can be treated without surgery.
If the ankylosing penis is congenital, caused by contracture of the penile meatus, the chances of it healing on its own are very slim, and surgery is usually required to remove the excess fat and make the penis visible.
If you have an invisible penis, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible for treatment, and early treatment is good for your body’s development.
