The Outlook For Testicular Cancer

The outlook for testicular cancer is excellent.

• Researchers have found more and better ways to diagnose and treat this disease, and recovery has dramatically improved.

• The majority of men treated for testicular cancer today are cured by their initial treatment.

• Many of those who experience a recurrence can be cured as well.

• Doctors emphasize that, while the cure rate is very high for all types and stages of testicular cancer, many of the drastic measures undertaken to cure later-stage disease can be avoided if the cancer is diagnosed early.

The best way to find testicular cancer is through regular self-examination.
