Not sure if this is the right thread for this question but here goes.
Has anyone had a fake testicle implant? I had testicular cancer about 12 years ago and had one removed. I didn't give it much thought until lately and am thinking about going for the implant. Any pros or cons from people that have done it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Testicle implant
Welcome to the forum, RandyK.
Just off the top of my head, it seems that having one testicle gone (leaving a void for the implant's pump and inflation bulb) is more convenient than most men's experience. For myself, the pump and bulb displaced my left testicle upward and there is a bulge in my scrotum (particularly visible when I am wearing briefs or any kind of supportive underwear that shows the outline).
The pump bulb is firmer than a natural testicle, but visually could pass as the natural thing.
Your situation could be a blessing.
Even if not, I would not worry one whit about it.
