Keeping Your TESTICLES Healthy Landing

When To Start Your Testicular Cancer Checs 3

It may be uncomfortable at first to do your testicular self-chec, or to talk to your health professional about your “private parts”, but it’s really necessary.

Beginning at ages 15-18, do a monthly testicular self-chec. If you have a family history of testicular cancer, ask your health professional about starting your monthly self-checs and doc-checs even earlier.

Regular monthly self-checs help you become more familiar with how your testicles feel when they are normal, allowing you to notice any changes that may take place and that may be of concern.

Get your yearly doc-chec. During this exam make sure your health professional checs your testicles.
