I have just one testicle

When I was 12 years old, I had an accident where I lost one of my testicles. Now that I am 28 and about to get married, I am worried if I can be a father with just one testicle.

Yes, you can conveniently father many children with one testicle just as it is possible for a woman to have babies with just one fallopian tube. The important thing will be to calculate your wife’s likely date for ovulation and endeavor to have sex with her around this time in order to increase the chances of her getting pregnant.
