On the occasion of Movember, male cancer awareness month, we are taking stock of two silent cancers affecting men: prostate cancer and testicular cancer.

Prostate cancer represents the 1is cancer in men in terms of frequency and the 3e cause of death, cancer. Occurring after the age of 50, prostate cancer can progress without symptoms. Testicular cancer, for its part, represents 1 to 2% of male cancers and particularly affects young adults (15-35 years old).

How to prevent these two cancers? What support exists for each of them?
