A member asked:

Is sex safe after orchiectomy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes!: You should consider waiting for 1 week or so to let things heal up after surgery. After that, you should be good to go. Remember in general, to be more careful about activities that risk contact to the area (horse riding, soccer, martial arts etc) as you are only running on 1 testicle now!
