While your baby is in the uterus, your testicles are formed in the lower part of the belly and are usually located in the scrotum in the seventh month of gestation.

The pediatrician checks at each control that the testicles are in place and it is tolerable that in the first eight or ten months have not yet completed their descent and are in the upper orifice of the scrotum. After this time, the doctor should look where they are.

The testicles have a retractile ligament that allows them to be stored in the lower part of the belly in situations of danger, but which can also be stretched to fix this organ in the scrotum, which is performed with a surgical intervention.
