Everything you need to know to protect yourself and the men in your life. Early detection saves lives, and it starts with awareness.
Testicular cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men between the ages of 15 and 35, yet most guys have never been told to check themselves. Unlike many cancers, testicular cancer is highly treatable when caught early, with a survival rate above 95%. But that number drops significantly when the cancer spreads before detection.
问题不在于治疗，而在于认知。许多年轻男性不了解预警信号，不知道如何进行自我检查，也不愿谈论此事。这种污名化正在夺走生命。
The Testicular Cancer Foundation exists to change that. Through education, community support, and awareness initiatives, we're making sure every man has the knowledge he needs to catch this disease early, when it's most beatable.
每年四月，睾丸癌患者群体都会齐聚一堂，共同提高公众意识，分享挽救生命的信息，并鼓励男性每月进行自我检查。
整个月期间，TCF通过社交媒体活动、教育活动、合作伙伴推广以及社区筹款活动，大力开展宣传工作。幸存者分享他们的故事，各组织举办活动，倡导者们则致力于消除围绕男性健康的污名。

One of the most common questions we hear: What color represents testicular cancer? For the Testicular Cancer Foundation, the answer is clear, and it's blue.
Colors play a significant role in spreading a message. Pink is synonymous with breast cancer, gold shines for childhood cancer, and blue is the hue that embodies TCF's mission, identity, and commitment to fighting testicular cancer.
While purple has been embraced by many cancer awareness campaigns, diluting its specificity, TCF's choice of blue ensures testicular cancer stands out and gets the attention it deserves.
Blue aligns with the broader men's health movement, from prostate cancer to Movember, creating a cohesive visual link that resonates with young men.
Purple is used across dozens of cancers. Blue gives testicular cancer its own identity, clear, bold, and impossible to overlook.
Strong visual branding drives early detection. Blue breaks through the noise and encourages men to take their health seriously, when it matters most.
Whether you're wearing a wristband, sharing our content, or showing up in blue every April, the color is one of the easiest ways to spark a conversation that could save someone's life.
每月进行一次睾丸自我检查只需不到两分钟，这是早期发现睾丸癌最有效的方法。具体方法如下：
热量能使阴囊放松，这样更容易察觉到任何异常。如果这样能帮到你，不妨站在镜子前。
用双手的拇指和食指夹住睾丸。轻轻滚动，触摸其整个表面。
The epididymis, a soft, rope-like structure at the back, is normal. You're looking for hard lumps, smooth bumps, or changes in size or shape.
Don't panic, most lumps are not cancer. But the only way to know for sure is to get checked. A quick ultrasound can give you answers.
睾丸癌可能发生在任何拥有睾丸的人身上，但某些因素会增加患病风险。了解这些因素有助于您保持警惕。
十几岁、二十多岁以及三十出头的年轻男性面临的风险最高。
如果父亲或兄弟曾患有TC，您的患病风险会显著增加。
隐睾病史是已知最强的风险因素之一。
White men are 4-5x more likely to develop testicular cancer.
一侧睾丸出现精原细胞瘤会增加另一侧睾丸患病的风险。
感染艾滋病毒的男性患病风险略高。定期体检至关重要。
Knowing the signs means you can act fast. If you notice any of the following, don't wait, schedule an appointment with your doctor.
Most of these symptoms have non-cancerous causes, like epididymitis or a hydrocele. But the only way to rule out cancer is to get checked. An ultrasound is painless and quick. Don't let embarrassment delay a potentially life-saving diagnosis.
提高意识不仅仅是了解事实。以下是您在对抗睾丸癌的斗争中真正发挥作用的方法。
4月是睾丸癌防治宣传月。整个月期间，睾丸癌基金会等机构将举办各类活动、宣传运动和教育项目，以提高公众意识，并鼓励人们通过自我检查实现早期发现。
蓝色是睾丸癌基金会（TCF）的标志性宣传色。TCF选择蓝色，旨在与更广泛的男性健康运动保持一致，为睾丸癌建立鲜明的标识，并区别于众多使用紫色的其他癌症。蓝色既醒目又易于辨识，能直接呼吁人们采取行动，实现早期筛查。
虽然整个四月都是睾丸癌宣传月，但像“全国睾丸自检日”这样的特定日子，有助于人们关注每月进行自我检查的重要性。
About 9,810 new cases of testicular cancer will be diagnosed in the United States in 2026, according to the American Cancer Society. It's most often diagnosed in young and middle-aged men, though it can occur at any age.
是的。睾丸癌是所有癌症中治愈率最高的之一，若能早期发现，生存率可达95%以上。即使在病情较晚的阶段，睾丸癌通常也极易治愈。通过每月进行自我检查实现早期发现，能显著改善预后。
每月在冲完热水澡后进行一次自我检查。用拇指和食指捏住每个睾丸，轻轻滚动，感受是否有硬块、光滑的肿块，或大小、形状上的变化。附睾（位于后方的柔软组织）是正常的。如果发现任何异常，请就医。
