1. What is Testicular Volume Normal Range?

Definition: This calculator estimates testicular volume using the ellipsoid formula, with normal range typically 10-20 cm³.

Purpose: It helps medical professionals assess testicular size which can indicate various health conditions.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

\[ V = \frac{π}{6} \times L \times W \times H \]

Where:

\( V \) — Volume of testicle (cm³)
\( L \) — Length (cm)
\( W \) — Width (cm)
\( H \) — Height (cm)

Explanation: The formula calculates the volume of an ellipsoid, which approximates the shape of a testicle.

3. Importance of Testicular Volume Measurement

Details: Testicular volume assessment is important for evaluating puberty, fertility, and detecting conditions like varicocele or tumors.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Measure length, width, and height in centimeters using ultrasound or orchidometer. All values must be > 0.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the normal testicular volume range?
A: The normal range is typically 10-20 cm³ in adult males, with slight variation between individuals.

Q2: How accurate is this calculation?
A: The ellipsoid formula provides a good estimate, but ultrasound measurement is more precise.

Q3: When would testicular volume be abnormal?
A: Volume may be reduced in conditions like Klinefelter syndrome or increased in cases of certain tumors.

Q4: Should both testicles be the same size?
A: Slight asymmetry is normal, but significant differences (> 2 cm³) may warrant medical evaluation.

Q5: How does age affect testicular volume?
A: Volume increases during puberty and may decrease slightly with advanced age.
