What to Expect During Your Male Reproductive Ultrasound Appointment
Understanding the process helps you feel prepared and at ease. Here is a step-by-step guide to your male reproductive ultrasound at our Chico location.
Scheduling Your Appointment
Contact us by phone or online to schedule your testicular ultrasound. Appointments are typically available within 48 hours.
Preparing for Your Scan
No special preparation is needed for a scrotal ultrasound. No fasting, no full bladder, and no dietary changes. Simply wear comfortable clothing.
During the Scan
You will lie on your back on an exam table. The sonographer will apply warm gel to the scrotal area and use a high-frequency transducer to systematically image both testicles, epididymides, and surrounding structures. Color Doppler is used to assess blood flow. The exam typically takes 20 to 30 minutes.
Receiving Your Results
Your images are reviewed by a board-certified radiologist, and a detailed report is delivered to your referring physician within 48 hours.
Follow-Up Care
Your urologist or primary care provider will discuss the results with you and recommend any next steps — whether that is monitoring, additional testing, or treatment.

- Couples experiencing infertility may require a scrotal ultrasound as part of the male partner’s fertility workup, to assess testicular volume, blood flow, and screen for varicocele.
- Patients with chronic scrotal discomfort, swelling, or a history of undescended testicles may benefit from a detailed ultrasound evaluation to identify the underlying cause.
