Thanks for you reply,

But i would like to know that is there any hope or possibility to get fertility at this age, and if not possible.
Is there any solution of removal without surgery.

Hi,
If an adult discovers that he has an undescended testis, moving the testis into the scrotum at this point will not improve fertility levels.  In adult men, an undescended testis is usually surgically removed as there’re increased chances of development of tumor in the undescended testis.
I sincerely hope that helps. Please do keep me posted. Warm regards.
