Netizens were moved by the story of a man in his 30s who had unknowingly lived without testicles and even served in the military. They asked the man of the tragic tale, “How was your sex life?” This question came from those who didn’t know that one can still have sexual intercourse without testicles.
On May 5th, Mr. A revealed in the online community Bobaedream that he discovered he was born without testicles when he visited a urologist due to pimples on his penis.
While examining the pimple area, the doctor was surprised and said to Mr. A, “There’s no testicle development at all. What?” After observing the scrotum from different angles, the doctor continued, “There’s none. No testicles? Hmn…I wonder how your penis grew without them. You also don’t seem to have armpit hair, leg hair, or a beard, and no Adam’s apple.” When Mr. A mentioned that he had never had hair or a beard, the doctor stated it was because he didn’t have testicles. The doctor then referred him for a detailed diagnosis at a university hospital.
Mr. A lamented, “Mom, why did you give birth to me without the testicle option?” He added, “I didn’t know I was missing two testicles, which would have exempted me from military service, so I just went and served.” He lightened the mood with a self-deprecating laugh, “LOL,” which tugged at the heartstrings of male netizens.
Netizens who read his story reacted with comments like “Stay strong” and “This is the saddest story I’ve ever encountered on Bobaedream.” When one netizen comforted him, saying, “A family can be formed in many ways,” Mr. A responded, “That’s why I’ve considered adoption. But it’s not something I can decide alone. I think I need to find a good partner.”
When a netizen experiencing hair loss asked, “I’m sorry to ask this question in such a situation, but do you have a lot of hair on your head?” The author responded, “I don’t have much hair on my armpits, legs, or beard, and not much pubic hair, but I have a lot of hair on my head.”
When some netizens couldn’t understand how he didn’t realize he had no testicles for over 30 years, the author said, “When I was young, I couldn’t realize it because I was too young. When I grew up, I just thought everyone must be the same. I wish this were all made up.”
Many netizens were curious about how he had managed to have a sex life until now. This is because many people believe that without testicles, an erection is not possible. Namuwiki states that without testicles, a man loses his male functions, making an erection impossible. This information is incorrect.
When a netizen asked if he had ever had sex, Mr. A said, “I naturally have been having sex. (The doctor) said, ‘Probably there was no sperm (in the semen).'”
One netizen who read his story commented, “Even without testicles, ejaculation is possible if there is seminal fluid and prostate fluid. However, it’s similar to azoospermia (no sperm in semen).” Is this true? Yes, it is.
Even after removing the testicles, erection is possible. Testicles produce the male hormone testosterone. Therefore, if the testicles are removed, symptoms such as decreased libido and erectile dysfunction can occur. However, in most cases, an erection is still possible. Of course, one can also have sexual intercourse. However, the amount of semen may not be sufficient.
If the lack of testicles leads to reduced libido or sexual performance, taking testosterone supplementation is an option.
Mr. A, who received consolation from many netizens, said the following.
“I sincerely thank you for your words of encouragement. I fell asleep after writing the post and never expected to receive so many likes and words of comfort. The encouragement deeply moved me from people all over the country. Thank you very much. There must be a way to overcome this! There’s nothing 21st-century medical technology can’t fix!!”
In cases with no testicles, it could be a condition called cryptorchidism, where the testicles are inside the abdomen. If an adult still has testicles inside the abdomen, they must be removed. According to a column written by urologist Lee Young Hoon for Hans Economy, the scrotum helps maintain the appropriate temperature for the testicles. In adult patients with cryptorchidism, the high body temperature stops the development of the testicles. As a result, the risk of cancer occurring where the testicles were increased by more than 30 times.
