Health Update: Testicle test
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.SMALL boys who may have undescended testicles should be investigated and have the problem surgically corrected before they reach the age of 10. Otherwise they run an increased risk of developing testicular cancer later in life. Recent research by the Imperial Cancer Research Fund showed that men with testicular cancer were four times more likely to have an undescended testicle than those who were cancer-free.
