What Is a Testicular Cancer Health Check?
A private testicular cancer screening is a comprehensive diagnostic assessment of the testes, combining ultrasound imaging, tumour marker blood tests, and clinical review to detect early signs of cancer or other abnormalities.
This package is designed for men with lumps, swelling, discomfort, or concern about testicular cancer, as well as those seeking preventive screening and early detection.
What Is Testicular Cancer?
Testicular cancer develops in the testicles and is the most common cancer in men aged 15–35.
Early detection matters because:
- It is highly treatable when caught early
- Symptoms can be subtle, including a small lump, heaviness, or discomfort
- Fast assessment reduces unnecessary delay and anxiety
Common Symptoms You Should Not Ignore
Any of these symptoms require urgent assessment.
What’s Included in This Testicular Cancer Package
Testicular Ultrasound Scan (Same Day)
A high-resolution ultrasound scan is used to assess the testicles for structural or vascular abnormalities and to help identify whether a lump is likely to be solid, fluid-filled, inflammatory, or otherwise suspicious.
This scan assesses:
- Testicular structure and size
- Lumps, tumours, cysts, or masses
- Blood flow abnormalities
- Non-invasive
- Takes approximately 15–20 minutes
- Report within 24 hours
Ultrasound is the first-line investigation for testicular abnormalities.
Tumour Marker Blood Tests
Advanced blood tests are included to assess key tumour markers that can support diagnosis, staging considerations, and overall risk assessment.
- AFP (Alpha-fetoprotein) – elevated in some testicular cancers
- β-hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) – may indicate tumour activity
- LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase) – can reflect tumour burden
- Helps support diagnostic interpretation
- Assists with risk stratification
Urine Test for Infection Screening
A urine test is included to help exclude infections that can mimic testicular cancer symptoms or contribute to swelling, pain, or inflammation.
- Gonorrhoea
- Chlamydia
This helps rule out infections that may present with similar symptoms.
GP Consultation (Follow-Up)
A follow-up GP consultation is included and takes place on the first Friday after your visit.
This includes:
- Full explanation of your results
- Clinical risk assessment
- Referral onward if needed, including urology specialist advice

Testicular Cancer vs Other Conditions
Not every lump, swelling, or episode of discomfort is cancer. However, these symptoms still require proper assessment because several conditions can appear similar without imaging and appropriate tests.
| Condition | Why It Can Mimic Cancer |
|---|---|
| Epididymitis | Can cause pain, swelling, and tenderness |
| Hydrocele | Fluid collection can cause enlargement or heaviness |
| Varicocele | Enlarged veins may create dragging discomfort or a lump-like feeling |
| Cysts | May be felt as a lump and require ultrasound confirmation |
Only ultrasound plus appropriate tests can confirm the cause.
