Did you know that testicular cancer, while relatively rare compared to other cancers, is most common in males between the ages of 15 and 34? The son of a friend is about to begin his second round of chemo for this cancer, which he didn't discover as early as would be ideal. He had no signs of cancer after his first round, but it is back. He is in his early 30s and has a wife and young children.
So much public attention is paid to breast cancer, self-exams, and mammorgrams, but I just don't recall hearing much about testicular cancer in the news. It would be prudent to educate yourselves and your sons. http://www.mayoclini...-cancer/DS00046
