As parents, we want to shield our children from pain and help them grow confidently and self-assuredly. Suppose your son was born with only one testicle or has lost a testicle due to a medical condition like testicular torsion or cancer. In that case, it’s natural to have concerns—not just about his health, but also about his future self-esteem and body image.
The good news? There’s a gentle, supportive option available: the testicular implant. This small, safe medical device can help restore the natural appearance of the scrotum and give your child the confidence to feel whole again, especially during sensitive teen years.
What Is a Testicular Implant?
A testicular prosthesis is a soft, silicone-based implant that mimics the look and feel of a natural testicle. It can be placed during or after surgery if a testicle is removed or missing. While it doesn’t restore fertility or hormone function, it provides a cosmetic and emotional benefit for boys as they grow up.
This type of implant can be inserted during the early years or postponed until adolescence, depending on what’s best for your child. The goal is to support not just physical balance but also emotional confidence.

How to Start the Conversation
If your son is young, your pediatrician or urologist might suggest waiting until he’s a bit older to decide about an implant. For teens or pre-teens, conversations about body changes can already be challenging—having a testicular implant can give them the confidence to feel “just like everyone else.”
Remember: the goal of a testicular implant isn’t just appearance—it’s peace of mind and helping your child thrive emotionally.
