Talking about testicular cancer
This page is about talking about testicular cancer.
Talking about your feelings can be difficult especially if they are to do with very personal problems such as sex or worry about rejection. It might be difficult at first, but many men find that once they have found the courage to talk openly with their partners, their fears of being rejected have little basis in reality. You may even feel closer after talking through a problem with your partner.
Others can also offer help and advice
- Your doctor or nurse
- A close friend or relative
- Organisations that give help and support. You can find details about them in our testicular cancer organisations page
You can also find information about your emotions in our coping with cancer section.
Some hospitals have specially trained nurses or social workers to help with sexual problems. Look in sex and cancer for men, or you might like to look at the testicular cancer reading list for other sources of help.
