Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Testicular Cancer

Q What are the early warning signs of testicular cancer?

A

Early signs of testicular cancer often include a painless lump or swelling in one of the testicles, a feeling of heaviness in the scrotum, or discomfort in the lower abdomen or groin. Some men may also experience a dull ache or pain in the testicle or scrotum. In rare cases, testicular cancer can cause breast tenderness or growth due to hormonal changes.

Q How is testicular cancer diagnosed?

A

Testicular cancer is diagnosed through a physical examination, imaging tests such as ultrasound to detect abnormal growths, and blood tests to check for tumor markers like AFP (alpha-fetoprotein), hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase). If cancer is suspected, surgical removal of the affected testicle (orchiectomy) may be performed for further examination.

Q Can testicular cancer spread to other parts of the body?

A

Yes, testicular cancer can spread (metastasize) to other parts of the body if left untreated. It most commonly spreads to the lymph nodes in the abdomen, lungs, liver, and, in rare cases, the brain. Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent the spread and improve outcomes. Regular self-examinations and medical check-ups can help identify testicular cancer in its early stages before it spreads.

Q Can testicular cancer be prevented?

A

There is no sure way to prevent testicular cancer, but regular self-examinations can help detect abnormalities early when the condition is most treatable. Avoiding known risk factors, such as exposure to harmful chemicals and maintaining overall testicular health, may also reduce the risk. Men with a family history of testicular cancer or undescended testicles should be particularly vigilant in monitoring for any changes.
