Is There Any Chance Of Complication Due To Oriechtomy?

I lost a testicle when I was 12 due to measles. Now I am 29 and father of 2 children. There are no issues with my sex life. But I want to know whether I am prone to any other complication due to the oriechtomy at any point of my future. Is there anything I should be worried of?

Hi,thank you for querry,
As you mentioned in your symptoms you have orhchiectomy in age 12,
even with one testis a man can live his sexual life happily because the one testis is enough to produce sperms and male testosteron harmone.
the chance of developing testicular cancer in one testis is the same as in normal.
so live a happily life no worries at all.
hope the answer will help you.
