Is testicular cancer hereditary? Yes, it is hereditary to a certain extent

Testicular cancer is hereditary to a certain extent. When there is a family member with testicular cancer, the risk of cancer in his offspring is higher than that of other people, but the chance of being inherited is small. In addition to genetic factors, acquired factors account for the majority.

Testicular cancer is related to heredity, but the possibility of being inherited is small. If someone in the family has testicular cancer, the risk of cancer in the offspring is higher than that of other people, but not all people with a family history of testicular cancer will definitely get the disease.
Even those without a family history of testicular cancer may develop testicular cancer if they do not pay attention to their daily lives. For example, if the testicles have been accidentally injured, the chance of developing testicular cancer is relatively high. There are also occupational reasons, such as drivers, who need to drive for long periods of time, which can increase the temperature of the testicles and affect blood supply, which may also lead to malignant changes.
