What causes the loss of a testicle?
The most common cause is removal for cancer, infection or trauma. Another cause is an undescended testicle which has to be removed for medical reasons.
What is a testicular prosthesis?
Testicular prosthesis is an implantable, sterile device made of medical grade silicone designed to resemble a natural testicle. It improves the appearance of a male who is missing his natural testicle and is indistinguishable from a normal testicle when properly implanted.
Why should I have a testicular prosthesis?
The prosthesis is only implanted for cosmetic reasons. It does not have any functions of a real testicle.
Is the testicle prosthesis comfortable?
Yes, most individuals forget they have an artificial testicle. The Rigicon Testi10™ is filled with high quality silicone to give one a natural look and feel.
Will anyone viewing me without clothes be able to tell I have an artificial testicle?
No, much like a breast implant in a woman, the look and feel of the device is entirely natural and undetectable unless you tell them you have an artificial testicle.
Can I still father a child after testicular prosthesis implantation?
Yes, for sure unless you lost both your testicles.
Can I still have an MRI with a testicular prosthesis?
Yes, Rigicon testicular prostheses are “MR Conditional.” You can be safely scanned by meeting the conditions described in the manufacturer’s literature.
What are the benefits of Testi10™ compared to other testicular prostheses on the market?
The high-quality silicone offers a natural design and natural testicle feeling.
