Can you still survive with late-stage testicular cancer

How long can patients with advanced testicular cancer live? What patients with advanced testicular cancer are more concerned about is how long they can live. Even if their disease has reached the advanced stage, they still don't want to give up treatment. There are many ways to treat testicular cancer today, such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, which are three conventional treatments. There are still great drawbacks in the treatment of testicular cancer, which seriously affects the treatment effect of testicular cancer patients. Testicular cancer patients must choose the treatment method that suits them. Everyone should understand that there are many factors that determine how long testicular cancer patients live. Let's take a look at them together.

How long can you live with advanced testicular cancer?

1. Experts say that radiotherapy is also one of the most commonly used treatments for advanced testicular cancer. It can shrink tumors and improve symptoms. It is usually combined with chemotherapy and has better effects than radiotherapy or chemotherapy alone. However, radiotherapy is very harmful to the body and should be used with caution in patients with advanced testicular cancer who have poor physical function. Radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy for testicular cancer patients can improve the toxicity of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, improve the physical symptoms of testicular cancer patients, and prolong survival.

2. The improvement of the patient's physical function is also an important factor affecting how long the patient can survive in the late stage of testicular cancer. Only with good physical function and strong immunity can the patient resist the development of cancer and tolerate various drug treatments. Therefore, improving the immune function and enhancing the resistance to tumors is extremely important for patients with advanced testicular cancer.

3. In terms of diet, you should reduce the intake of fat in the diet; increase the intake of fiber in the diet; avoid strong alcohol, spicy, hot, and irritating foods.

As long as testicular cancer patients choose the right method for active treatment, the patient's health can be improved. Patients with advanced testicular cancer should maintain an optimistic and cheerful attitude and actively cooperate with medical staff for treatment. Nowadays, there are so many means and drugs for treating testicular cancer, and the life cycle of testicular cancer patients has been greatly improved.

Once it is confirmed to be cancer, the testicles and spermatic cord must be removed. Usually, it is rare for both testicles to become cancerous, so fertility will be preserved. Even if the tumor has not yet formed serious metastasis, measures should be taken as soon as possible to avoid deterioration. Generally speaking, if the tumor has not yet metastasized, the chance of cure is 95%. Even if the cancer cells have spread, the chance of cure is 80 to 90 percent higher than many other cancers. Surgery only cuts off the surface tumor, but cannot cut off the millions of capillaries under the tumor (the root of the tumor). Therefore, surgery can only eliminate the surface tumor, but cannot cure the tumor. It is easy to relapse, spread and metastasize. It is recommended that you use Chinese herbal medicine to shrink tumor blood vessels for consolidation treatment to prevent recurrence and metastasis. The effect is better, faster, and safe. It will not cause any toxic side effects to the body, and can enable patients to see the treatment effect in a short time (15-20 days).

Patients with testicular cancer should not be troubled by the question of how long they can live, which will affect their mood. Patients should not believe those false propaganda advertisements, and should receive regular treatment as soon as possible with effective methods. The survival rate of this disease is very high with early treatment, and it is recommended to go to the hospital for regular checkups.
