Question:
Hi, how are you? This isnt really a problem, more of a concern. A few years back i suffered from food poisoning and consequently lost my left testicle. This was abit of a shock at first but over time you learn to live with it. However, now im old enough to have sex, im worried about when the time comes what my partner would think about me having one testicle. Would they notice it and chuck me out of bed or don't females mind these types of problems? i appreciate your help, thank you.

I have answered a very similar concern a few questions earlier; Please look into my archives.

Having a single testicle does not impair sexual function in any way. The reaction of women may vary dependeing on their sex knowledge, myths and misconceptions. A knowledgeable person however is not likely to be bothered by the partner's single testicle.
