Men give themselves a testicular self-exam (Safe For Work)

Earlier this week I shared a post about Movember (or to be more precise (HO)MOvember, which is an annual month-long fundraiser dedicated to raising awareness and money for men’s health issues.  I saw this video posted on Accidental Bear and thought it would also be good to share.

Testicular cancer is most common in men between the ages of 15-30 years. This video of seven men performing a routine self-exam shows how easy it can be. When detected early, testicular cancer is extremely curable.  I hope that this funny – and very safe for work – video will remind people to perform a self-exam.

  1. BosGuy, this was a great post, and this was a great YouTube video!

    I did the Self-exam, not entirely sure if I correctly felt my epididymis, but I certainly felt no lumps of any kind.

    My testicles felt large (and I must confess, I do not usually fondle my testicles, simply because, well, various reasons, but I digress), and they felt firm, and a bit squishy.

    I certainly did not feel any lumps of any size, which is a good thing.

    As for doctor visits, because I was diagnosed with a heart condition, I see my primary health care physician, an internist, fairly often, and if anything arises, I usually tell him, or, if necessary, see him right away.
