A member asked:

If you only have one testicle remaining does that make you less likely to get testicular cancer than if you had both?

Yes: Each testicle's risk of developing cancer is independent of the other so you're 50% less likely compared to having both although this assumes that you didn't lose 1st one to cancer.
