Hmmmm..... help?!


Question: Hmmmm!.!.!.!.!. help!?
Ok, so you should check for lumps/changes on your nuts but how often should you!?

Coz I'm getting paranoid!

I am worried coz every guy has had testicular cancer on my mums side of the family! (We had a discussion about it over dinner when my uncle (mums side) was over! I know! Put me off my pasta a bit!) and apparently everyone who has had it has often been very young when they have had it!.!.!.!.

So now, I'm getting really paranoid about it and now I'm checking twice a day! I just really don't want it! It's becoming an obsessive compulsive disorder! (I already have one with hygiene!)

Anyway!.!.!. I just want to know how often you should be checking!.!.!.

I'm 13 y/o!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

try to relax some!. While you may have a higher risk of developing testicular cancer than other guys, that does not require you to be checking your equipment more than once a month!. Adn as for cleanign yoruself, shower every morning - get wet, lather once over and then rinse and dry well!. Plsu if you get hot and sweaty from any activity during the day head for the enarest shower and clean up!. But don;t wash and shower unless it is essential even if you feel you need to!. The only times a shoower is needed are mornign and after playing hard!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Once to twice a month, but it's no trouble to spend a minute in the shower each morning checking if you want to be safe!. They're not likely to develop overnight but it's best to catch any signs early!.
Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com
