"how do u prevent testicular cancer? it's like my worst fear almost....lol...im 16 and 20 will be here one of these days...."
For the most part, you really can't prevent it. Cancer is truly one of the great unknowns, especially certain types of cancer. Unfortunately, testicular cancer is one of them. I've been an avid road cyclist since I was 14, and I thought that the constant pressure of the seat in my hump would eventually cause a problem. Especially with what happened to Lance Armstrong, I really got spooked. It just seems that maybe bad circulation or something would cause problems. Fortunately, this isin't the case, and nothing has fallen off (yet). While there are things that can cause cancer in the world around us (smog, radiation, cigarettes), cancer is largely due to inheritance. What isin't inherited or caused by cancer-causing agents, that is the big unknown. That's the big mystery behind cancer: the cause of genes going haywire. Genetic research will likely find cures in the future.
