Retracted testicles can occur when it's
cold. Is this happening all the time? Is
there anything that is happening before
you notice this sensation?

Your scrotum is actually a very
interesting organ. Your testicles are
supposed to be kept at a temperature of a
few degrees below your body temperature.
So, when it's hot, the muscles in your
scrotum relax to get them as far away from
the body as possible. When it's cold, the
scrotum tightens to maintain an ideal
temperature for your testicles. As long as
it is pain-free and comfortable, you have
nothing to worry about.

totally natural. It gets less frequent as
you get older.
