Testicular cancer has a very serious impact on the damage of male function, so when the disease develops to the late stage, many patients have a huge psychological burden and are worried about losing their lives. This kind of pressure will greatly hinder the treatment of the disease, so I hope to understand the relevant content.

How long a patient with advanced testicular cancer can live is not a fixed number. If the recovery is good, a few years or even more than ten years is possible. However, if the recovery is not good, the countdown of life may begin at any time.

How long can a patient with late-stage testicular cancer live? The treatment of late-stage testicular cancer mainly depends on the choice of treatment method and the patient's mental and physical state. Testicular cancer treatment methods play a certain role. When testicular cancer reaches the late stage, the tumor cells proliferate very rapidly. Doctors generally do not recommend surgical resection. Clinically, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and comprehensive treatment with traditional Chinese medicine are more commonly used. Among them, chemotherapy based on cisplatin is the preferred treatment method. It has a direct killing effect on cancer tumor cells, but it will inevitably damage normal cells, so its irradiation intensity, range and time should be controlled. Since long-term use of radiotherapy and chemotherapy will have toxic side effects on the human body, traditional Chinese medicine can be used for coordination and treatment.

Testicular cancer is common in 20-40 years old; seminoma is common in 30-50 years old, embryonal carcinoma and teratoma are common in 20-35 years old. Choriocytic cell carcinoma is more common in men, and yolk sac tumor is a tumor of young infants. Most clinical symptoms are not obvious, and a few are painful. The testicles are enlarged, but still maintain their original shape, with a smooth surface, hard and heavy texture. There are often no abnormalities in the epididymis and vas deferens. When a tumor occurs in cryptorchidism, a mass appears in the lower abdomen and groin. For testicular cancer with a wide range of late-stage spread and the patient's physical function is very weak and can no longer tolerate chemotherapy, conservative treatment can be used with traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine has the effects of strengthening the body, replenishing evil, replenishing qi and nourishing blood, softening and dispersing nodules. It can improve the patient's immunity, control the development of the disease, and has obvious advantages in prolonging survival and alleviating symptoms. Rapidly destroy or prevent the division and reproduction of cancer cells, kill cancer cells, and gradually shrink the tumor until it disappears.

How long can a patient with advanced testicular cancer live? Although there is no accurate answer to how long a patient with advanced testicular cancer can live, we can see from these introductions that even in the advanced stage, as long as active treatment is given, life can be prolonged. At the same time, patients with advanced testicular cancer and their families should pay attention to communicating and communicating with their attending physicians throughout the treatment process in order to understand the treatment situation and the patient's condition in a timely manner, which will help prolong the survival of patients with advanced testicular cancer. Many male friends will give up treatment and lose confidence in life after learning that their testicular cancer has developed into an advanced stage. This will only make their condition rapidly worse and will not benefit them.

Although testicular cancer can cause the patient to lose his life, it can still prolong the patient's life as much as possible through effective control. Good control of cancer cells can also play a decisive role in the patient's physical recovery, so only when people face it actively can they live a better life.

Warm reminder: There is no clear answer to how long a person can live with testicular cancer, because each person's physical fitness, disease severity, psychological factors, treatment conditions and other factors are different. Adjusting your mentality, actively cooperating with treatment, and using radiotherapy, chemotherapy and biological treatment can alleviate symptoms, improve quality of life and prolong survival.
