Testicular cancer is a relatively rare but highly treatable form of cancer that primarily affects younger men, typically between the ages of 15 and 35. Despite its rarity, it’s crucial to raise awareness due to its increasing incidence and the importance of early detection.

What Is Testicular Cancer?

Testicular cancer develops in one or both testicles, which are part of the male reproductive system and responsible for producing sperm and testosterone. The most common type is germ cell tumors, which are divided into two main subtypes:

Seminomas – Slower-growing and more responsive to radiation therapy.

Non-seminomas – Tend to grow and spread more quickly.

Other, rarer types include Leydig cell tumors and Sertoli cell tumors.

Prostate cancer occurs when abnormal cells in the prostate grow uncontrollably. While many cases remain localized and grow slowly, others can be aggressive and life-threatening if not managed promptly.
