#MaleCancerAwarenessWeek is our annual campaign to raise awareness of prostate, testicular, and penile cancer. This year it runs from 13-19 September and will have a focus on #penilecancer with the launch of a new animated short film. #prostatecancer #testicularcancer
Each session will be patient-led and will cover awareness, stigma, diagnosis delays, and the physical and psychological side effects of #penilecancer. To register for this free Zoom conference, please click here: orchid-cancer.org.uk/news/vi… @GTumors @checkyourtackle
It is often difficult to talk about your concerns regarding #malecancer. We have therefore created a checklist to help start the conversation with your GP. You can download it here: orchid-cancer.org.uk/news/or… #testicularcancer #penilecancer #prostatecancer #cancer #menshealth
