    Re: Testicular cancer

    I’ll paste what the article said.

    “Boys who have undescended testicles have 2.4 times the risk of developing testicular cancer for every 6 months delay of getting the procedure to bring it down, the risk goes up by 6 percent.”


    This is why I figured 12 percent a year for about 22 years is 240 percent but that doesn’t make sense.

    If any of you can help with that I’d appreciate it. I heard it wasn’t as high as I was claiming. But I suck at math

    No sense in doing so. You'll get your scan and see your doctor. In the mean time stay off Dr. Google and try to stop ruminating on negativity.

    Easier said than done. I just am curious if my chances aren’t that high to get it.

    Ok so they did the ultrasound. They said the right testicle was normal and healthy and I have to get a ct scan to see if the left one is undescended. So I guess more waiting and worrying.
