Is it normal to have saggy balls?

Question

I have always had a saggy sack & I thought everyone did for a long time

I remember when I was like 10 I would rock my body back & fourth and they would make a loud clapping noise that everyone could hear..

I thought it was funny at first but now its embarrassing... Some of my friends told me it wasn't normal, that theirs aren't like this & they couldn't make theirs clap

What does this mean?
Is it normal?
I heard something about them being big is a sign of cancer?

It's not *not* normal. Some are big, some are small. Some stay up close to the body most of the time, others tend to hang down. They also fluctuate depending, on the heat in that area, so that they can stay around 96 degrees (F).

Having big ones doesn't mean you have cancer. Usually, anything cancerous will feel out of the ordinary, like a lump on the actual ball. You should check yourself on the regular (monthly or so) by feeling them, ideally when you're in the shower and the hot water makes them hang lower. If you kind of roll them between your fingers, like you're holding an egg, you can feel for anything out of the ordinary. Just realize that there are tubes (the epididymis, as someone tried to spell) that carry sperm inside the body. Those are supposed to be there. But if one day you feel something like a nodule or unusual bump, you should go to the doctor.

If your balls are normally bigger and saggier, then that's just how they are, but if they are suddenly bigger than normal, or if one becomes bigger and the other one stays the same, that could be a sign of problems besides cancer. You could have an infection of some sort, or possibly a cyst. So it's always good to keep an eye on how things are going down there.

But, if your issue is just that they hang low, don't worry, it's perfectly normal. Just wear some underwear that will keep them from going rogue.

when it's hot they do that because then need to stay at a slightly cooler place. so that would mean away from you. =sagging. if you feel any tension/uncomfort it might be a good idea to have some support
