Testicular Cancer
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Testicular cancer is an abnormal growth of cells in one or both testicles, the male glands responsible for producing sperm and hormones.
Signs worth watching for: The appearance of a lump or an increase in the size of a testicle, and a feeling of heaviness or discomfort in the area, are usually reasons for a checkup.
When should you seek care? With any change in the shape, size, or consistency of the testicles, an early evaluation is prudent.
Which specialist treats it? The urologist performs the initial evaluation and, when a tumor process is confirmed, the oncologist coordinates the management. Detecting changes and discussing them promptly with a professional supports timely care.
