Tight scrotum

For the past year my scrotum has been getting tight as if I am in cold water if I stand or am active. It remains loose when lying down or sitting.

What can cause this?

I'm glad you brought this up and John1922 chimed in. I have been having tight scrotum and very sensitive testicles. /i also have very sticky sweat glands in the groin and armpits. I have tried powders and bathing more frequently but neither seems very effective. I also have switched to bamboo boxer/briefs which helps some, but it all is quite annoying. The MD said the sensitivity issue is common but offered nothing beyond that.

Have you any idea what is causing tight scrotum. I am not have sweaty issues. Just tight scrotum when standing or active. When tight I also feel mild discomfort

From what I was told it is due to the hormone suppression, but it was not a very extensive explanation.

What does your doctor say?

Scrotums seem to have a mind of their own.

pay a visit to your Doctor and they will rule things out with an examination

Just natural, something like cold situations, if you have discomfort maybe other reasons, just get a routine examination

it’s not temperature related. It happens when i stand up or active. If I remain sat or lying down they stay loose

Mine shrink if I do exercise (Gym etc) working out, then back to normal after shower, wouldn’t worry, but if you are concerned pay. Visit to the Doctor
