Can testicle "malfunction" cause Fainting - Sexual Health - Men Message Board

I have fainted a few times before, and usually feel that I will pass out everyday.
i had Brain CAT Sacns, MRI/MRAs, EEG, an more.
But I never had my testicles checked, and i think that i have a problem there. Because the right one is hanging lower than left one. and sometimes i feel like something is moving a little in left one, sometimes it feels a bit weird in right one.
Is it possible that this can cause me feel dizzy/lightheaded, faint ?

Well there are a tremendous amount of nerves in your testicles so that might cause fainting.

I would think it extremely unlikely that your testicles could cause you to faint - fainting is usually to do with lack of blood/oxygen to the brain, but I am not a doctor so cannot tell you this for certain. However I can tell you that it is perfectly normal for your testicles to hang at different levels, and to move about - generally they will move up and down depending on the temperature that they try to maintain.

If you are fainting regularly I presume you are under the doctor for this, and he will be running various tests. You can mention this to him but I doubt it is anything to do with your testicles.

I assume you have tried vitamins and iron to prevent anaemia?
