A member asked:

My husbands testicles small in volume they are left 6, right8 on a orchidometer he does not ejculate much. is testicle size linked to amount on sperm?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes but not strictly: Small testicle size may be related to decreased volumes. Certainly your husbands testicles seem small (<15 ml is small). Given that his volume seems low ( less than 1.5 ml is considered low) he should probably have this evaluated to consider androgen deficiency.
