Yes there was reduction in size for me too, that was with me second TC but when you only have one guys at that time it was hard to compare. Some wiil like you have shrinkage, sounds like you got in early though.

Mainly out of sheer curiosity, how many of you guys realized you had a problem with the boys through one of them decreasing in size. I only ask this because I haven't sen any other posts where there has been anyone saying that one of there testis had shrunk.
That to be honest was the biggest system I had, I had no visible lumps or any that could be felt but my left one was probably about half the size it should have been ,I mean some of you guys have had tumours 2 or 3 times larger than my left testicle which has since been sliced diced. I don't remember having any major trauma that would cause the shrinkage to happen.
I ain't big on stats or figures but it would be kind of good to know if am not the only one to have lost baby sized ball.
Ps when I finally plucked up the courage to go get checked out for what I thought was a hernia turned out to have 3 x tumours in my realy small left testacle Lucky or what

Atrophy. Shrunk and got hard as a nut... no pun... and the hard attached bump clued me in. Clued me in I had a problem, but not in my wildest dreams did I think I was going to lose lefty at that point... not even sure anymore if I even knew TC existed at that particular point...
