Cryptorchidism is underdeveloped or
undescended testicles. You will need to
go and be checked out by a doctor as this
can cause impotence and other problems. If
you think it could be this, I would urge
you to do it sooner rather than later.
There is often a tendency in families so
it might be worth asking if other males in
your family have suffered from this. It
is usually caused by the muscles and
ligaments connected to the testicles being
too tight.
It is pretty straightforward to fix and
should not have any long-term implications
for you.

Is there any signs that i could see to
know if i have this? and would this cause
my voice to not crakc and my penis not to
fully grow?

I am not sure about your voice but your
penis size sounds normal enough. The only
way you would know if your testicles were
either not properly descended (ie had not
fully emerged from the abdominal cavity)
would be by looking. Obviously I can't
tell you from here! You really do need
to go along and ask a doctor to check you
out, just to put your mind at rest if
nothing else!
Perhaps a male contributor would be better
placed to advise you about this though. I
only know the little I know because
several of the men in my family had this
condition. All of them have big families
and deep voices now though, so I would not
worry too much!

You are still growing and developing. Do
see a doctor to be sure everything is ok
but in the US males are checked with well
baby check ups to be sure the testes have
descended normally. It may be worth it to
see the doctor and have a physical and get
some blood work done to give you peace of
mind. Boys continue to develop into their
20's so relax. You are not done with all
your maturing.
