Hi welcome to HCMForum. As the testis is shifted in the early age you may have no problem of sperm count.
As you have attained puberty observe about the nocturnal erections if it is there it is confirmed that the
testosterone harmone is secreted. so you will not have any problem with the sex life. What is left is infertility
it is to be confirmed by consulting a physician or infertility clinic. You have reacted at the correct time. You
may have to go for semen analysis if no sperm is found they will do biopsy of testis to know whether any part
of the testis have spermatozoa for improving sperm count. But you may not have to go so long. dont worry
every thing will be fine. thank you.
