10 Most Common Testicle Questions Answered By An NHS Doctor (Cold Plunges, Testosterone & Self-Exam How To)

Description

For men aged 15-45 in the UK, testicular cancer is the most common cancer. While it is over 95% curable if caught early, only 21% of men in the UK perform regular self-checks, and 68% don’t know how to properly check themselves highlighting a major gap in men’s health awareness, early detection, and cancer prevention. MAN ALIVE host Dr Jeff Foster, an NHS and private GP specialising in men’s health, delivers a special solo episode for Testicular Cancer Awareness Month, focused on testicular health, early diagnosis, and how to correctly perform a self-examination to check for lumps, swelling, or abnormalities.In this episode, we break down the key signs and symptoms of testicular cancer (including lumps, pain, and changes in size or texture), explore risk factors and lifestyle habits that can impact fertility and sperm health (like saunas and cold plunges), and discuss the critical role of testosterone in male reproductive health. Dr Jeff provides a clear, step-by-step guide to performing a testicular self-exam, explains when to see a doctor, and debunks common myths around men’s health. We also cover fertility preservation, hormone health, prevention strategies, and practical tips every man should know, making this an essential guide to testicular cancer awareness, early detection, and long-term health… Topics: One Testicle Bigger Than The Other?
