Swollen Testicle

[PennsyScot]

I was on daily 50mg topical testosterone for a few months. I experienced significant testicular atrophy. I found this to very disturbing and abruptly ceased usage of the gel about 2-3 weeks ago. My testicles have slowly returned to their normal size and color since I have stopped. The scrotum has also seemed to return to a more natural condition from its previously contracted position. Everything seemed to be going well until yesterday when one of my testicles became swollen. Both are very tender and I also have some tenderness of the pelvic region of the abdomen; not very deep.

I am wondering if any of this is normal for someone coming off trt or maybe I need to make a trip to the ER

Thanks,
Scot

No, this isn’t normal. I’ve never heard of this before simply stopping TRT.

Went to the ER, diagnosis was Epididymitis, treated with an antibiotic
