Painfully tight scrotum

Does anyone else have the problem of their scrotum constantly staying so tight, due to the dartos muscles, that it is painful? Before starting TRT and nandrolone, my scrotum hung loose unless I got into cold water. Now the only time the muscles relax is when I apply a heating pad to my scrotum. It hurts because it pushes my testicles up into my abdomen. It is painful to walk when your balls are not in the right place.

I recently met a new sex partner and I noticed his scrotum stayed tight like mine. He said it started after he also began taking TRT and nandrolone! We are both also long-term HIV survivors.

I have been seen by 3 Urologists and none of them had any idea what could be the cause. One suggested Botox.

Just curious if others on TRT (or long-term HIV) have experienced this?

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
