Testicular Prosthesis Surgery for Men: Purpose, Procedure, Benefits & Recovery

A missing or underdeveloped testicle can affect a man’s confidence, body image, intimate relationships, and overall sense of masculinity. Whether due to injury, cancer, torsion, infection, birth conditions, or previous surgery, many men choose a testicular prosthesis to restore symmetry and normal appearance to the scrotum.

Modern testicular implants look and feel extremely natural, offering a discreet and effective solution. Bangkok is a leading destination for this surgery thanks to expert urologists, advanced implant options, and high-quality aesthetic results.

This guide explains everything men need to know about testicular prosthesis surgery.

What Is a Testicular Prosthesis?

A testicular prosthesis is a soft, silicone-filled implant designed to look and feel like a natural testicle. It is placed inside the scrotum to restore symmetry and natural contour.

Reasons men choose an implant:

  • Testicle removed due to cancer (orchiectomy)

  • Testicular torsion loss

  • Trauma or accident

  • Undescended testicle (congenital)

  • Infection or atrophy

  • Cosmetic or psychological reasons

The procedure does not affect fertility or testosterone production in the remaining testicle.

Types of Testicular Prostheses

1. Soft Silicone Gel Implants (most natural feel)

  • Soft, compressible

  • Closest match to natural testicle

  • Commonly used worldwide

2. Saline-Filled Testicular Prostheses

  • Adjustable volume

  • Firmer feel

  • Alternative for specific medical needs

3. Anatomically Shaped Implants (premium)

  • Enhanced contour and realism

  • Available in multiple sizes

  • Reduce risk of rotation

Your urologist will recommend the best option depending on anatomy.

  • Have lost a testicle
