A member asked:
Undescended testicles in inguinal canal cause infertility?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Men who have both testes undescended in inguinal canal will almost definitely be infertile. However most men with a single fully descended testis are fertile, even if the opposite testiscle is in the inguinal canal.
