Re: A pregnancy question

The only things we can say is that if the one testicle was removed for a reason that only affected that one testicle, the other testicle should do fine alone. On the other hand, if the one that was removed was done due to a process, whatever that may be, that affected both testicles, he may need a semenanalysis to check this out.

Hope this helps and write back anytime for more information.
