The testicular examination is a simple and takes only
three minutes. The best time to perform a self-exam
is right after bathing when heat causes the skin of
the scrotum to relax. You should start doing monthly
exams at age 15 and continue until age 40.

the scrotum visually for swelling. |

each testicle separately and gently between the

testicle. |
