Questions in The Urology Forum are being answered by doctors from Henry Ford Health System , consistently ranked one of the best hospitals in America. I am 36 years old with no medical problems, but I am concerned that this is unusual. Thanks Tom for your answer.
Testicles drawing up into the scrotum is a protective reflex and is totally normal.
It is called the cremasteric reflex. The cremasteric muscles contract or relax raising or lowering the testicles within the scrotum. This is thought to help maintain ideal temperatures within the testicles to facillitate sperm production. We can also arrange local accommodations through this number if this is your need. Please bring any physicians notes and lab test results that you may be able to obtain.
