At what ages should men perform monthly testicular self-exams?

Choice A reason: While testicular cancer is most common in men aged 15–35, limiting self-exams to this age range may miss cases in older men. Monthly self-exams are recommended starting at age 18 and continuing throughout adulthood. Choice B reason: This age range excludes younger men who are at higher risk for testicular cancer. It is not consistent with preventive guidelines. Choice C reason: Testicular cancer is less common in men over 45, and this age range does not reflect the peak incidence period. Choice D reason: Monthly testicular self-exams are recommended for men aged 18 and older to promote early detection of testicular cancer, which has a high cure rate when caught early. Regular self-exams help men become familiar with their baseline anatomy and detect changes promptly.
