Overview & Considerations
To minimize the risks of testicular cancer, men should ask their health care providers to show them how to examine their testes, just as most women examine their breasts to reduce breast cancer risk.
Very few men know how to look for lumps in their testes, and men who do know how to do it often do not do it regularly. Men should examine themselves monthly to monitor for changes in their testicles.
A testicular lump that doesn't hurt may be a sign of cancer, especially in men aged 20 to 35.
