Welcome to BUSTINYOURBALLS

We are here to make testicular cancer a less confusing subject and to encourage men to regularly inspect themselves, look for those tell-tale signs and get medical advice as soon as possible.

My name is Tom Garrod and I am a testicular cancer survivor who has dedicated his life to encouraging awareness of simply checking yourself regularly. I can be found competing regularly in Marathons, Triathlons and various endurance events wearing the BustinYourBalls kit.

On this site I’ve put together different sections that will help you with your knowledge of testicular cancer from simple checking techniques through to what to do if you find something unusual. I hope you find this site useful and informative and hope it will put you a little bit more at ease regarding the challenges that testicular cancer can bring.

Don’t forget to INSPECT – DETECT – GET IT CHECKED

If you have had the misfortune to experience testicular cancer personally or have known someone who has, I hope that you will find time to help spread YOUR knowledge and understanding.

I think people are more likely to listen to those who have experienced this first hand, so they can’t come back and say “You don’t know how I feel”.
