Testicular Cancer

What Is Testicular Cancer?

This is a cancer in part of the male reproductive system known as the testicles.

These are two oval shaped organs, usually smaller than two walnuts. They hang in a sack known as the scrotum, which is attached beneath the base of the penis.

Of the 8,400 cases in the United States in 2009, there will be approximately 380 deaths. That equals less than 5%.

What this statistic does tell you is that almost all of these men had one or both of their testicles surgically removed when they used traditional treatments. Those who used Alternative Treatments at the special clinic I used still have their testicles and almost all of them no longer have the disease. Your choice. You pick which one you’d rather have.

In most cases, the disease will start as a lump on the side of one of the testicles. For this reason, men are encouraged to do a monthly self-exam, similarly as women do breast self-examinations. If unusual lumps are discovered during the self-exam, men should seek a medical opinion.

What Do Testicles Do?

Only males have testicles; females have overies. Testicles make sperm to join with the ova of a female to make a new life. They also make several chemical substances including testosterone, a hormone, which does many different things to keep the male body healthy and functioning at it's peak.

Males have two testicles which hang outside the body because sperm needs to be cooler than the inside of the body. One testicle usually hands lower than the other so they don't bang into each other during exercise or running, which would be painful.

What Age Group Is More Likely To Get Testicular Cancer?

Answer:

It is most common among males age 15 to 40; and it occurs more often among men in their mid-twenties.

What Does Testicular Cancer Look Like, and
What Are The Symptoms?

They may include one or more of the following:

1. A lump in one of the testis.
2. Numbness or pain.
3. Loss of sexual desire or activity.
4. Burning sensation during physical activities.
5. Fluid build-up in the scrotum.
6. A dull ache in the lower abdominal or groin area.
7. A sudden swelling of one of the testis, to as much as three times normal size, but the shape should remain more or less the same.
8. Bloody semen at ejaculation.
9. Overall tiredness or weakness.
10. Discharge or pus from the penis.
11. A heavy or dragging feeling in the groin or scrotum.
12. An enlargement of the beasts, with or without tenderness, similar to symptoms of puberty during teenage years.

Symptoms of Metastasizing

If the cancer has spread beyond the testicles and nearby lymph nodes, additional symptoms may include: shortness of breath, coughing, chest pain, headache, confusion, or dementia.

What Tests Lead To A Testicular Cancer Diagnosis?

Tests can be a self-examination, blood tests, ultra sound, and surgery to collect a tissue specimen for biopsy.

What Are The Stages Of Testicular Cancer?

Staging is stage 1, 2, 3, and recurrent. In stage 3, the disease may have spread to areas such as the lungs, neck, brain, bones or liver.

When I was diagnosed in January 2007, my doctor gave me as short as 3-months to live and rated my cancer somewhere between stage 3 or 4.

Without checking any alternatives, I started chemotherapy at my health care provider’s oncology department.

I was scheduled for 6-rounds of chemotherapy; each round was a double-bag.

During my second infusion, I experienced a deathly reaction to the chemicals and almost died in the treatment chair.

That near-death experience was the catalyst that sent me in search of Alternative Cancer Treatments.

After weeks of searching, I found a wonderful clinic which was recommended in one of Kevin Trudeau’s books. I devoured the website information and read all the survivor’s testimonials. Then, my husband and I discussed and prayed about the possibilities of me going to the clinic.

It was a big decision to go; it shouldn’t have been, but it was. I had butterflies like I have never had them before. Then, together my husband and I made the decision for me to go to the clinic.

The treatments were for two-weeks; now they do three-weeks for less money than I paid for my two-weeks. I regained my energy and smile back almost instantly after the treatments began.

After returning home, I made an appointment with oncology. He ordered another PET-scan because he couldn’t detect any cancer remaining when he physically examined me. I held my breath for about a week until the results came back…Cancer-Free!!

That was three-years ago.

I have full faith that you can become the next cancer survivor by going to the clinic. Take your opportunity now and have a FREE CONFIDENTIAL MEDICAL EVALUATION, to discover if you are a good candidate for Alternative Cancer Treatments.
