My son was diagnosed with a false cryptorchidism (the right testicle is not in the scrotum). We have seen a surgeon and a urologist three times for examinations, and ultrasounds were performed. The last consultation was in February, and the urologist suggested postponing the follow-up exam to around August. If the condition remains the same, surgery will be necessary. My son is currently 1 year and 7 months old. Please share your experiences if you've had this surgery—how it goes, what the recovery is like. I am terribly worried 😭

Could you tell me how it manifests? My son was also born with one testicle undescended. Later, it seemed to descend, but I sometimes see it in the scrotum. However, this is rare. Most of the time, I feel it in his inguinal canal. Why aren't any of the doctors paying attention to this? I'm really worried.

I understand how difficult this is for you, especially when it involves your little one. Usually, surgery to correct cryptorchidism is a standard procedure performed under anesthesia. Your child typically feels well almost immediately after the operation. Recovery is usually quick—just a few days—and soon they’ll be playing and running again. The most important thing is to follow the doctor’s instructions and keep an eye on the incision. Don’t worry in advance; most procedures go smoothly, and the medical team does everything to ensure your child's comfort and safety.

Tanya Our mood swings back and forth—sometimes up, sometimes down, kind of wandering. But we've been told that since he's still young, he needs to have surgery.

Tanya We first noticed it at 6 months.

Ekaterina Thank you so much! It's still a bit scary because it's anesthesia, and I'm still feeling a little overwhelmed 🥲.
