    The harm of cryptorchidism mainly includes affecting testicular function, inducing diseases, inducing testicular torsion, etc. For specific situations, you can go to the hospital for relevant consultation.

    1. Affect testicular function

    If surgical treatment is not performed in time, the testicles may be at a relatively high temperature for a long time, which may affect the spermatogenic function, thus causing infertility. It is recommended that patients undergo orchiopexy and other surgical methods for treatment in a timely manner.

    2. Inducing diseases

    Inguinal hernia is usually induced due to imperfect testicular development, and can be treated with surgical methods such as hernia repair under the guidance of a doctor.

    3. Induce testicular torsion

    It may cause testicular torsion, thereby aggravating the condition, and should be treated with surgery in a timely manner.

    In addition to the above-mentioned common hazards, it may also cause testicular malignant transformation and other hazards. It is recommended that patients use surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor in a timely manner. The earlier the treatment, the better.
