Testicular cancer is a type of cancer that specifically affects the testicles, which are part of the male reproductive system. It is extremely rare for a woman to develop testicular cancer because she does not have testicles. Testicular cancer occurs when there is uncontrolled cell growth in the testicles, leading to the formation of tumors.
However, it's important to note that if a man has testicular cancer, it does not directly cause cancer or infection in a woman. Testicular cancer is not a contagious disease, and it cannot be transmitted from one person to another through sexual contact or any other means.
In the context of a relationship, the primary concern when a man has testicular cancer is his own health and well-being. Treatment options for testicular cancer typically include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. These treatments are designed to address the cancer within the affected individual and do not pose a risk of causing cancer or infection in a partner.
It's essential for individuals with testicular cancer to work closely with their healthcare providers to receive appropriate treatment and support. Partners can play a vital role in providing emotional support and understanding during the diagnosis and treatment process. If there are concerns about sexual health or fertility as a result of testicular cancer treatment, couples should discuss these issues with their healthcare team to explore available options and make informed decisions.

If a woman had the same type of cancer as Lance Armstrong what would it be called?
Ovarian cancer could be considered the female equivalent to testicular cancer, as they are essentially homologous organs. (that is, they share a "common ancestry" embyologically, and they are both gonads and endocrine glands) Depending on how one interprets it, it is theoretically possible for a woman to have to have testicular cancer. One suffering from intersexuality "disorders" like complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS) - genetically a male with undescended testes, but with a vagina and outward female appearance - or Klinefelter's syndrome - instead of XY (male) or XX (female) chromosomes, one has XXY - can get testicular cancer.
