What Will Be The Side Effects After Removing Testicles?
I am 77 yrs old and had five hernia operations. Since I am old the Doctor suggested removal of the two testicles during the hernia surgery. It was done. Will there be any adverse effect on my health by this? At my age, sex is out of the question anyway. Any health problems because of lack of tstosterone ?

Hi
i had gone through your query.
The function of testis is maintain reproduction and sperm production.
If you have 77 years old and have complete family then no contraindication for testis removal.
It has no other side effect on health.
after testis removal no one can produce child as sperm production occur in testis.
So if necessary then go according to your doctors advise.
Wish you a good health.
Thank you.
