A member asked:
How likely is it for an injury to the testicles at a young age to cause future infertility?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Unfortunately this is possible. Injuries which caused damage to the epididymis or the vas deferens can block the flow of sperm through the normal ducts and cause sterility.
