Is the increased risk of testicular cancer simply built in, or can it be avoided?
- phoronixrly 5mo agoAre you riding 8 hours a day every day? No? Get a well-fitting seat that doesn't make your balls go numb and you'll be fine. (AFAIK link between cycling and TC is inconclusive, link papers if you know otherwise)
- ervine 5mo agoI think it’s just a Lance joke - cycling has no correlation with TC.
- handedness 5mo agoPerhaps TC increases cycling rates!
- handedness 4mo agoThe context for the downvoters is that at the time, Lance attributed his performance to treatment for TC. (And being down even one T would almost certainly improve saddle comfort.)
- tokai 5mo agoThere is no consensus that cycling increases the risk of testicular cancer. see page 6: https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1186/s12885-018-4093-3.pdf https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1186/s12885-018-409...
