What Causes Pain In The Left Testicle While On Clenbuterol?
I have recently been taken clen and within the past two days my left testicle is in pain. I had hernia surgery a couple years ago and the pain sometimes stretches to the surgery spot. I know clen will cause muscle cramps, so I am trying to deal with the pain. Could this be a formality of taking clen or a real issue?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Well, this may be a real issue or caused by hernia surgery since nerve may be entrapped or damaged during surgery which then causes such pain for some time and usually, it subsides in short period. This should not be the side effect of Clenbuterol. Other causes include epididymitis, which is an inflammation of part of testicle or varicocele.
This is usually treated with 10 days of antibiotics, usually Ciprofloxacin and there are no permanent consequences. Masturbation and intercourse should be avoided till pain persists, if possible. Since I may prolong inflammation course. Some more serious conditions such as tumors or torsion are rare but in doubtful cases, you should do Doppler ultrasound or scintigraphy. In this particular case, I don’t think this is required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein
