Brief Answer:
no need to worry at all

Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for your faith in the health care Magic
I have gone through your question and I understood your problem.

No need to worry at all.In almost 65 percent of the males left testis hangs lower than the right testis.Its just to maintain temperature as left testis has a slight higher Temperature than right one.Also they have asymmetry in their sizes.Which you are not supposed to worry until and unless they are symptomatic. If at all you have doubts in your mind then I will suggest you to undergo ultrasound testis which will further confirm the findings.

I hope my answer was helpful for you . Dont forget to close the discussion.Thank you.

Thank u doctor for your advice.Please also suggest if laser is a safe solution to pubic hair and all around butts/thighs/ass as seen in uploaded pics. Is there any side effect of laser on sexual behavior ? If so, then what is better solution?

Brief Answer:
following are few alternatives

Detailed Answer:
It has very few side effects like redness, permanent scarring of skin, secondary infections etc. No direct effect on sexual behaviour though.

There are few other options like waxing,over the counter creams,electrolysis etc which you can try only after consulting with your dermatologist.

I hope my answer was helpful for you . Thank you.
