can a man have kids with one testicle?

Yes, he can. My brother has three of them and he has only one testicle. He injured the other in an accident with his dirt bike, when he was a child. Btw, the kids are all the image of their father, even his daughter!

"At least 97% of men with CF are sterile due to congenital bilateral aplasia of the vas deferens (CBAVD), an absence of the vas deferens. There are new technologies that are offering hope to men with CF who desire to father a child since sperm is present. This would involve aspiration and In vitro fertilization. Having a discussion with a fertility specialist would be helpful in those cases. Additionally, men who do not have cystic fibrosis but are born with congenital absence of the vas deferens have an increased risk being carriers of the CF gene.\n\nWomen with CF may also have impaired fertility, as thicker cervical mucus may prevent sperm from entering the uterus and thus reduce the likelihood of unassisted conception"

well, for one, males shouldn't have to produce so much sperm to fertilize one egg. During ejackulation, thousands of sperm are released. It could be refined to release fewer to maximize potential of the sperm

When two egg cells are fertilized by two sperm cells in the same period of time, fraternal twins are formed. So, if a woman’s ovaries release more than one egg during ovulation and the woman has contact with more than one man during her fertile period, it is possible that she will become pregnant with twins who have different fathers. This phenomenon is extremely rare, but possible.\n\nIn even rarer cases, fraternal twins from different fathers may result from mistakes made during assisted fertility procedures. For instance, if a woman is artificially inseminated with a mixture of two men’s sperm cells because the equipment was not properly cleaned after its last use, she may become pregnant with fraternal twins who have different biological fathers. Again, while possible, this occurrence is exceedingly rare.\n\nNote: Identical twins cannot have different fathers. Identical twins are formed when the zygote created from one egg cell and one sperm cell splits during its development. When a single zygote produces twins, one man is the father of both children.

To this point no because true hermaphrodites are usually born with non-functional reproductive systems, and in any case true hermaphrodites don't end up with a scrotum since the material used to make the scrotum in males is used to produce the labia majora of the female's vulva.  As the tissue goes toward that end, any testicles the hermaphrodite has will be kept too close to the body cavity, and therefore the temperature will be too high for them to complete spermatogenesis (and thus the hermaphrodite will be sterile in that regard).\n\nHowever, it should be noted that the whole "DNA is too similar" idea is a myth.  While you stand a 50/50 chance of producing a non-functional child by it inheriting two Y chromosomes and no X (which is not viable), even if the DNA of the hermaphrodite is male, it still has a 50% chance of uniting an X and Y, at which point the embryo would likely be viable, as you know the DNA it inherited produced a viable organism... and if the hermaphrodite's DNA happens to be genetically female, then you have no problem.  Human beings survive just fine with an extra X chromosome.\n\nDNA has no problems replicating itself with similar or identical strands, and the assumed incidence of physical defects associated with inbreeding, while higher than breeding with someone outside the family line, is only 6% compared to 3%, and hardly the disastrous odds portending certain doom and gloom for the offspring many think such a mating must entail.\n\nIt may be morally reprehensible and disgusting to consider in our society, but there have been tons of children produced by cousins mating with each other, brothers and sisters mating with each other, parents and their children mating with each other, and they're generally as healthy as all the rest.  \n\nSo far, though, only one virgin birth has been reported, and Jesus's father was more than willing to take responsibility for being the other parent... which means at this point the phrase "go f**k yourself" is still just a fanciful insult.  =)

Sorry about that but fortunately we men can function with one perfectly well.  I also only have one testicle and it really is not an issue.  Your testosterone levels will be a little lower but not critical.  When you get older and take meds for blood pressure and heart etc. the meds may cut your natural testosterone down so you can get injections if needed.  As for sperm count one will do the job fine.  Did you have a fake testical put in?  If you think it will bother your sex partner to feel only one ball in the scrotum you can have a false testicle put in.  It will look and feel normal.  Give your self a few days to heal up and you will be good to go. Also in the first ejaculate after surgery you may have a little blood in the semen.  All later ejaculates should be normal.

removeing a testicle is called castration. 'Getting fixed' is sterilization which is known as a vasectomy. It is possible for a male to get one testicle removed due to something like cancer and still have the other teste operationanal. Therefore if you get fixed you are still supposed to have both your jewels.

it`s okay even if he have only one he can have a normal sex life and also a normal kids ! don`t worry mam

According to this it depends on which type he has: one cannot be helped but the other may be helped with surgery\n\nhttp://66.218.69.11/search/cache?p=azoospermia&prssweb=Search&ei=UTF-8&fr=ush-yps&x=wrt&u=www.mayoclinic.com/health/azoospermia/AN01259&w=azoospermia&d=RpUy6pIFNz_G&icp=1&.intl=us

His testicles will always produce sperm. However, he may have to have the sperm removed surgically to fertilize an egg.

not too common, here is info from the experts...\n\nUndescended testicle\n \nMy nephew's son was born with only one testicle. What causes this? Can it be treated?\n- No name / No state given\n  Mayo Clinic pediatrician Jay Hoecker, M.D., and colleagues answer select questions from readers.\nAnswer\nDuring male fetal development, the testicles (testes) form in the abdomen. In the final months before birth, they typically move down into the scrotum. But sometimes one testicle fails to fully descend. At birth, it remains up in the abdomen or only part way down toward the scrotum. Doctors refer to this as an undescended testicle (cryptorchidism). Up to 30 percent of boys born prematurely — and 4 percent of full-term male infants — have an undescended testicle.\n\nThis condition usually corrects itself without treatment within the first year of life. If this doesn't occur, treatment may include:\n\nInjections of a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin to stimulate movement of the testicle into the scrotum \nSurgery to relocate the testicle to the scrotum \nIf both testicles are undescended in a newborn male, a doctor may recommend tests to confirm the baby's sex and to identify the location of the testes.\n\nA male with only one healthy testicle can still have normal erections and make adequate sperm to conceive a child. However, potential health concerns in a male with an undescended testicle include:\n\nIncreased risk of testicular cancer, even if the testicle has been surgically relocated \nAn undescended testicle could twist and impair blood flow to the testicle (testicular torsion) \nhttp://www.mayoclinic.com/health/undescended-testicle/AN00556

No- a enuch cannot reproduce as  the testicles have either been removed (deliberately or by accident) or are otherwise non-functional.

Probably. The testicles are just another example of redundant anatomy in the human body, like the kidneys. A spare is always a good thing to have. As long as that one testicle is functioning properly, it can still produce and still transfer sperm to the seminal vesicles.

No, at least one parent must have an "A" allel to pass on. This is Biology 101.

What do the 2 of you think?  Is he terminal?  Can you financially raise a second child?

Your testicles should be about the same size. One often is lower than the other, which is more a reflection of where it is at in the sperm producing cycle.
