First of all, is there a good reason to worry about the size of testicle? If your testicle is as small as 8-y-o's, prepubertal boy's, then it is too small. If you have a varicocele of stage III or higher, shrinking could happen. Testicular size is accurately measured by orchidometer.

The testicle does not shrink unless its blood vessels are compromised and in conditions like mumps infection or after severe inflammation. It takes many months to do so. So pl don't panick and see a Urologist to see if everything there is OK Good luck
