SaralnamaWhat happens if a man takes a pregnancy test and it comes positive? A positive pregnancy test for a man in India can be a warning sign of testicular cancer. Dr. Ashwini Rathod of Ankura Hospital, Pune explains that pregnancy tests detect hCG hormone. Men don't produce this hormone normally. But some cancers, especially testicular tumors, can release hCG. If a man's test is positive, he needs urgent medical check-up. Dr. Kshitiz Murdia of Indira IVF says men should be aware of their fertility health. He suggests regular doctor visits, quitting smoking, limiting alcohol, good hygiene, managing obesity, and preventing STIs. These steps can help maintain reproductive health in men.
