When a man becomes sexually excited, the arteries carrying blood to the
genital area enlarge, while the veins carrying blood from the genital area are
more constricted than in the non-aroused state.
This uneven blood flow causes an increase in volume of blood trapped in the
genitals and contributes to the penis becoming erect and the testicles becoming
engorged with blood. During this process of vasocongestion the testicles
increase in size 25-50 percent.
If the male reaches orgasm and ejaculates, the arteries and veins return to
their normal size, the volume of blood in the genitals is reduced and the penis
and testicles return to their usual size rather quickly.
If ejaculation does not occur there may be a lingering sensation of
heaviness, aching, or discomfort in the testicles due to the continued
vasocongestion. This unpleasant feeling has popularly been called blue balls,
perhaps because of the bluish tint that appears when blood engorges the vessels
in the testicles.
Blue Balls Describes a Temporary, Minor Pain
The condition usually does not last long and the level of pain associated with
blue balls is usually minor and can be exaggerated. Most men have been
socialized to ejaculate when they get an erection during sexual activity.
Failure to ejaculate and to feel orgasm often adds frustration and
disappointment to the reality of the physical sensation.
