A member asked:

What happens if you have a prosthetic testicle due to cancer can you still join the military mostly navy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes, you can.: A prosthetic testicle should not interfere with your health in anyway. And, it should not impose any limitations on one's life. But, if one has had testicular cancer it is important to see your oncologist for follow up to monitor effects of treatment and to provide cancer surveillance.
