I don't recall the exact measurements but I think my right is larger but the left hangs lower.
I once had to see a NP for a possible double hernia before being allowed to go for a scan to confirm. I'm really not sure why this practice has this system in place, seemed like a waste to me, but what do I know?
I get called into her office, she is about 40 years old but sitting in her chair like a 14 year old. She goes through my record and says she will need to examine me. She asked me to stand and lower my pants and underwear to my knees. I stand up, undo my belt, button and zipper and let my jeans fall to my ankles. As I go commando mostly these days. She opens her desk drawer and gets a spiral notebook out, good through the pages and finds the next blank page and starts writing in it. I'm standing next to get desk half naked. She then goes through several drawers and pulls out a measuring tape. She then gets up and goes over to the counter behind her, grabs some packets of alcohol cleaning wipes, then sits back in the chair like a 14 year old with her ankles under her butt. She cleans the tape several times, then rolls her chair over towards me.
She points to my testicle and asks, ‘this one?’. Not knowing what she was asking, I simply replied, ‘yes?’. She begins to measure my testicle. I start wondering why she is measuring my testicle. She writes down her finding them measures in a different direction. She writes the details in the notebook. She then moved over to the other side and repeated the process. She rolled back to her computer station and started typing in the results. She finishes and says that I can now get dressed and leave.
Weirdest ever interaction, weirdest actions taken by her, and no known reason why she thought my testicles were hernias?
Has anyone else had their testicles measured by means not related to scans like ultrasound or MRI/cat scans?
