Testicular disorders such as cancer and torsion poses a serious health challenge to young men and Testicular Self-Examination (TSE) is recommended for its early detection and management. However studies related to the perception and adoption of TSE among university students are not common in Nigeria. This study was therefore designed to assess the knowledge, perceptions and practice of TSE among male undergraduates of Babcock University, Ilisan-Remo, Ogun state.The survey involved the use of a three-stage random sampling technique in selecting 500 male respondents across the four faculties in the university. Six Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were conducted. A validated questionnaire was used for collecting quantitative data. Analysis of quantitative data was done using descriptive, Chi-square and ANOVA statistics while the tape-recorded and transcribed FGD data were subjected to content analysis.
