Testicles hanging too low

Hi, im 26 years old and since my early 20s ive noticed that my testicles have been hanging lower and lower each year.

This past summer I measure them and they are hanging 6" away from my body, which I dont know if it is too much or abnormal but im worried they will eventually get too low.

Why does this happen? and should I try to fix it? it is getting a bit unconfortable I would like to know if I there is surgery or If i should do it.

thanks

Hello mohit..its completely normal..
Its based on your food and inner wear.
Only because of over heat, your balls hanging down. Sometimes it may hurt you.
In order to overcome overheat temperature, it's hanging down.

I prefer boxertype inner wear. And it should exactly fix your groin and scrotum
Use Jockey tactel material inner wear when u in airconditioned room.
Cotton material - when you go out sunny weather

If you have any doubt, when you get down from sleep in morning, it will be in UP
After the day temperature rises.it may hang.

keep your body cool by taking chicken once in week with minimum  quantity  and fish you can take twice in week.
Take more water..this is the simplest medicine to cool your body
Instead of chicken you can take almond,cashew,ground nuts to get more energy and muscle build. EGG I prefer 2 in a day. Taking Fruits like pomo,watermelon,muskmelon frequently in week reduce heat.

Have a periodical masturbation weekly once is fine , too much makes you week and let you more heat.

Have your environment with room temperature not exceeds 24 degree.

If you follow all these..you won't face this again.
Hope this helps for sure.

Hi Dr Singh,
Thanks for your help, my worries are that I feel that they are too low at the moement, and I fear they'll drop even more as I get older.

As well, this has brought me some problems wearing underwear since it has become unconfortable to wear boxers or anything that doesnt support me, and I'm getting lots of rashes betwen my scrotum and legs most of the time even though I try to wear briefs most of the time.
Thanks.

Hi,
I don’t think you need to worry much on that count. The variations in the position of the testes are common due to the changes in the temperature. In summers, it’s very common for the testes to hang quite low due to the higher temperatures as the temperature of the testes has to be maintained lower than the body temperature so that the viability of the sperms is kept. Please be assured there’s nothing much to worry about. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
