Can I have a PPP … completely private please… when my son was born he was placed in foster care due to Id just left his abusive dad but my mental health wasn’t great at all, I always had contact near enough daily and always voiced any concerns for the last year it has just been his foster career dropping him of at my house then picking him up again etc as I was still doing courses to get myself in the right frame of mind to be a proper parent (it was the hardest choice putting him in foster care but the best for his start of life) he’s been home for around 6 months now and everything is going great, he’s just over two and I’m starting potty training… now here’s what I need advice on… he doesn’t have any balls, he has a sack but no balls, I never paid much attention to this before but as now he is running round in the nude and my mum mentioned it to me and googled it and they should be formed by 6 months.. I’ve checked in his red book at his 8 week check up they said they were there but now they aren’t???? I’m going to be taking him to the drs on Tuesday for his allergy review and will also mention this but in the mean time does anybody have any advise before I drive myself mad?!?

My son was born with just one and the doc said if the other hasn’t dropped by the time he was 2 they would take him in for key hole surgery to drop it. When they did the op it was then they found out that it was wrapped in a hernia sack. But he is a happy healthy 12 year old now with no complications down there.
my son had this they were too far up they did drop on there own if they hadn’t he would have had a day stay don’t worry too much hun just speak to your gp about it I had no idea with my son till a gp checked him he was my first so I didn’t have a clue about boys bits xx
My lad had an op about 4 years old to pull amd stitch them into the sack. Really easy day surgery,have to be careful for about 6 weeks but it was fine,sore for a few days afterwards but then he was back to his normal loopy self lol x
I’m waiting for a date for my 2.5yo to have an operation, he’s got an undecended testical. I’ve been to the gp 4 times and they’ve finally agreed that it’s not going to stay in the sack. His is too high and it’s in his groin. It’ll be a day case with key hole surgery. Our gp told us is was very common x
First of all well done you for doing what was best for your son and for achieving the up hill battle. Hope the following assists
Testicles form in the abdomen during fetal development. During the final months of development, the testicles gradually descend into the scrotum. If this descent isn’t completed at birth, the testicle usually descends within a few months. If your son has a retractile testicle, the testicle originally descended as it should, but doesn’t remain in place.
Signs and symptoms of a retractile testicle include:
The testicle may be moved by hand from the groin into the scrotum and won’t immediately retreat to the groin.
The testicle might spontaneously appear in the scrotum and remain there for a time.
The testicle might spontaneously disappear again for a time.
The movement of a retractile testicle almost always occurs without pain or discomfort. As a result, it’s noticed only when the testicle is no longer seen or felt in the scrotum.
The position of one testicle is usually independent of the position of the other one. For example, a boy might have one normal testicle and one retractile testicle.
Retractile testicle is different from undescended testicle (cryptorchidism). An undescended testicle is one that never entered the scrotum.
When to see a doctor
During regular well-baby checkups and annual childhood checkups, your son’s doctor will examine your son’s testicles to determine if they’re descended and appropriately developed. If you believe that your son has a retractile or ascending testicle — or have other concerns about the development of his testicles — see his doctor. He or she will tell you how often to schedule checkups to monitor changes in the condition.
If your son experiences pain in the groin or testicles, see your son’s doctor immediately.
Well done with your achievements anyone who has a tough start but fights back deserves a medal you’ve been through so much and achieved greatly I’m so happy for you and your little boy enjoy every single moment you both share as for your little ones testicles just pop along to your gp he will reassure you and sort everything out for you try not to worry it can be easily resolved good luck for your future x
they’ve probably retracted he might need an op to pull then down and keep them in place x
My son had the op at 6 months it was just a day op and he was fine after
My stepson had an op at 12 weeks as his where not there at all.
