Testicular cancer is named for where in the body it originates aka the testicles. They’re located inside the scrotum, a loose bag of skin underneath the penis. The testicles produce male sex hormones and sperm for reproduction. Testicular cancer is rare compared to cancers such as breast, lung and colon cancer. Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in American males between the ages of 15 and 35 but there has been a surge in cases among newborn males, as well as toddler aged males, due to the mother taking Zantac during pregnancy. Testicular cancer is usually easily treated, even when cancer has spread beyond the testicle. Depending on the type and stage of testicular cancer, you may receive one of several treatments, or a combination. While it is treat able a baby or young child having to go through the rigors of a diagnosis, treatment and possibly losing a testicle (or both) is very traumatic on all levels.
