Undescended Testicle treatment in Benito Juárez

An undescended testicle, known medically as cryptorchidism, occurs when one or both testicles do not move down into the scrotum before or shortly after birth. It is one of the most common genital abnormalities in boys.

How it is detected: It is usually noticed when checking that the scrotum is empty on one or both sides, without this causing pain in the baby.

Why is it worth addressing? Follow-up is important because, if the testicle does not descend on its own in the first months, it may require evaluation to define how to manage it.

Who evaluates it? The urologist is the specialist who studies this condition and guides follow-up. If during a checkup you notice that your child's scrotum is empty, discussing it with this professional makes it possible to define the right time to act.
