A member asked:
When i sit on the toilet my testicles always shrivel up even when i'm hot. why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal reaction: It is because the muscles attached to the testicles, which are usually relaxed if the temperature is warm, are contracting in response to your position and probably straining to have a bowel movement or urinate. This pulls the testicles up toward the abdomen. It is completely normal and harmless.
