In general, the scrotum is stimulated by too cold, and shrinkage will occur. This is normal and does not belong to testicular atrophy.Medical testicular atrophy means that the testicular is normal, and after some reason, it gradually shrinks and becomes smaller.There are roughly the following reasons:
Virus infection infection is the most common cause of testicular atrophy of children and adolescents, especially epidemic mump virus, commonly known as "gill" disease.When the testicles are attacked by this virus, the sperm tissue in the testicles will be destroyed, the testicular volume is reduced, and the texture becomes soft.
Injurbed scrotum or testicular parts, impact injuries occur, causing scrotal hematoma or testicular laceration. Even if trauma healing, the testicular will be in insufficient blood supply for a long time and atrophic.
The severe orchitis of the inflammation can last for many days when the testicular swelling and pain can be swollen and painful.Testosomial tissue destruction was caused by bacterial violations, resulting in atrophy of testicular tissue.
A radioactive substances affect all those who have been lining in radioactive substances for a long time, such as long -term professional personnel such as X -ray and isotopes. If it is not well protected, it will cause testicular atrophy.
Endocrine disease testicles are an endocrine organs that mainly produce androgen, and many of the body command endocrine organs, such as pituitary gland, adrenal glands, lower parts of the mound brain, will interfere with the function of the testicles and cause testicular atrophy.
Drugs affect some toxic drugs for a long time, such as arsenic, or estrogen drugs that repeatedly use antiarophic, such as aluminol, can cause testicular atrophy.
