Now that Easter and April Fools Day is out of the way, it is time to focus on testicular cancer according to the Movember Foundation. As part of the Testicular Cancer Awareness Month, the foundation is encouraging men to “Know Thy Nuts” in a somewhat risque ad campaign that isn’t afraid to call a spade a spade.
According to Movember Foundation, about 70 percent of all men do not perform regular self-checks of their testicles. However, it is testicular cancer that is the most common in the United States for men between the ages 15 and 44. Just as women are encouraged to do self breast exams to look and feel for lumps, so are men with their testicles, which can help a great deal with survival. If you notice a lump, a change, or something different that wasn’t there before, it’s time to see the doctor.
