Q: My son got operated for undescended testes with hernia. He is 5 years old. What will be his future - will he be able to be a father and what will be his sexual life after getting married?

A:There is no cause for concern here. He shall have a normal sex life and the fertility is also, by and large normal with one-sided undescended testis.
