What is the major difference between unilateral cryptorchidism and bilateral cryptorchidism? Do both of them cause fertility issues? Is it possible to become a father if any one of the problem present?

Unilateral means one side. Bilateral means 2 sides. Both can lead to fertility problems although bilateral is more likely. Pregnancy can be possible with both (unilateral more common) depending upon the level of the testis.
