In practice, however, that is just as silly as saying “there’s only one right person on earth for me to be in a relationship with.” There is no such thing as the perfect candidate, and oftentimes the best candidate is one who is capable of doing the job and also diversifies the perspectives and experience of your workforce and/or rectifies systemic problems in your field.

31yo here literally going through the exact same thing myself, except I’m stage 3a with small nodules on my pubic lymphs and lungs.

Had the surgery to remove my nut (fellow lefty here) a little over a month ago and now about to finish my first round of chemo.

Mine got typed as embryonal carcinoma. Only felt a lump forming back around April, so I guess mine moves a little faster than yours maybe?

Either way, so glad yours is contained to the testicle. Hopefully that means you’ll get to dodge BEP, which in my experience is definitely a bit rough.

And yes PLEASE SELF EXAMINE, MEN!!!!! If you feel a lump, no matter how small, see a urologist IMMEDIATELY. There is no cure like early detection folks! 👍

(Fellow 31yo testi cancer guy here, so I’ve def asked my oncologist this a lot.)

There is almost no chance of losing fertility with only one nut, so don’t worry! If anything, you’re more likely to have low sperm count or sterility from some other underlying condition. You could contact a sperm bank and ask if they do sperm counts and motility tests just to see where you stand as it is. But really, one nut or two makes pretty much zero difference to fertility—thankfully!

I never thought to look for a sub, thanks!

First round went ok! First five days of the cycle are rough as fuck, but luckily the next two weeks have been a little better. Interested to see how round two goes.

We’re hoping to only have to go three rounds. My HCG and AFP post-surgery still put me in the good risk category, phew! This means we’re also hoping to dodge the RPLND, which I would be very thankful for.

Thanks for checking in, really appreciate it! I’ll definitely subscribe to the sub and check it out!!

Yes!
