Get ready to raise awareness and support for a very important cause – Testicular Cancer Awareness Week, which occurs from April 1-7. This week-long event was established in the early 2000s to educate people about testicular cancer and encourage men to do regular self-exams. It's also a time to celebrate survivors, honor those who have lost their battle, and show support for ongoing research and treatment efforts. So let's come together and spread the word about this often overlooked but highly treatable form of cancer.
