OK, this is probably a weird question, but... do your testicles keep growing as you age? I know from research that both the nose and ears continue to grow during your entire life, while other body parts stop growing once you reach maturity. But what about balls? I have a "normal" sized cock (just a fraction under six inches erect), but my ball have always been on the large side. Ever since high school, I've noticed that mine were bigger (in some cases, much bigger) that what appear to be the norm. I base this observation on covert glances at other guys in the locker room, what I've seen on nude beaches, and guys in porn videos, just to name a few. Now, I've heard that I should discount the guys in porn videos, as (I'm told) part of the selection criteria for them is small balls (so as not to block the view of the camera.) I'm in my late 50s now, and my balls are so large that I can barely enclose one of them with my hand (and I have BIG hands!) I measured my (erect) cock recently and it's roughly the same size as it was when I was in my 20s. However, when viewed next to my balls, it looks like it's shrinking! This isn't a physical problem for me and it doesn't keep me awake at night, but I am more than a little curious.
I invested in a sturdy wheelbarrow. No, man. I've never heard of that , unless something may be wrong. Might want to consult a nut-bag Doc.
No, I'm 62 and my balls seem the same as always. The average white or black testicle is fractionally less than 2 inches long by 0.8 inches wide and is 1.2 inches in diameter. Together, they weigh about 1.5 ounces. There is a lot of variation. Asian testicles weigh significantly less.
I got curious about the size you quoted, so I decided to caliper my own. Mine measure at 3.3 inches long by 2.4 inches wide. I can't think of any reliable way to weigh them. In any event, it sounds like mine are substantially bigger than average. Interestingly enough, my wife also maintains that they've increased in size since we got married 35 years ago (and they were big then.) She's not at all unhappy about this,as she'd much rather play with my balls than my cock. Since I prefer that also, it's a win-win for us!
Could be a mild case of scrotal elephantiasis. I'm in no way a doctor tho, only guessing. Just be thankful you're not like this poor bloke... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wesley_Warren,_Jr.
I'm getting a resentment. I always thought that with age came the hangy nut-sack. I'm about your age. Mine are always tight. Look like a peanut shell all the time. Doesn't make any sense.
Once past puberty the testes remain the same size. However, the scrotum can stretch / lose its elasticity, which stops it from reacting so much in colder conditions, where it would otherwise tighten, thus drawing the testes back inside the body in order to control their temperature. After all, a man reaches his sexual peak at about 19 (fertility-wise, that is). After that it's downhill, as far as Nature is concerned & it's not longer necessary to care for the organs that are no longer as productive as they could be. Incidentally, as a minor point of interest, in Nature, the size of a species testes in relation to its body size is directly proportionate to the amount of times it has sex. A Gorilla, for example will mate only once or twice a year, with a partner that it adopts for life, and has testes not much bigger than a pea, whereas the Tuberous Bushcricket has testes which take up more than 14% of its body weight due to the number of females it inseminates. Humans are pretty much on the lesser side of middle of the road.
I'm still waiting to "loose the elasticity" of my nut sack. If you can picture a "peanut shell," you're picturing my nut sack 99.5 % of the time. Guess my nuts are close to average size, they're just never seen. Would love to have a pair of "low hangies."
Well, it's official. I've recently seen both my regular doc and a urologist (in preparation for a vasectomy). They both say that I have unusually large balls!
