How To Check Your Testicles
Testicular cancer is a young man’s disease, and yet this is the age group that has the greatest sense of invincibility from the illness. Dr Harper demonstrates the technique you can use to self-examine your balls, and as it’s best carried out in the shower, it’s a great excuse for taking a bit longer in the morning.

Hi im 16 and i am concerned that i have a small lump in my scrotum sack but it is not on one of my balls. It is always next to my left ball and feels attached to a tube or vain but can move. I am very worried but don't want to tell my parents about this sort of thing.
Please get back to me.

Hello there,

Im only 17, but when he put his penis up me, I started bleeding, and when he gave me oral sex, ive since been getting slight red patches in my cum. And my balls feel really heavy of fluid! What could this be? its very painful, and i regret that night! Im supposed to be straight! I darent tell my mum or GP! PLEASE HELP!
