Does having one testicle actually stop me from joining the army?

I'm supposed to be going to meps in 4 days, my recruiter knows I only have one, and got medical records to prove I've only had one since birth, and it was a cancer condition, or accident causing it. The only thing is, I keep seeing things stating that I won't be accepted only having one. Does anyone know if this is a waiver situation? Is there a way passed it? Or is this an underlined policy? If I get denied do to this I'm going to be pretty pissed off. I've only seen posts saying it affects ur ability to fight agressively and blah blah blah. Well it didn't stop me from competing and winning at a world class level wakeboarding, so why shouldn't I be able to fight for my country? Any know how true this is?
 
I highly doubt this will disqualify you. Your testicles really have nothing to do with anything besides the cough test.. Im not 100% sure, and im not the doctors at meps but I don't really see a problem in it.
