Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Testicular cancer reduces male fertility even before treatment begins?

Yes. Two sources state that impaired sperm production and gonadal dysfunction are already present in men with testicular cancer at diagnosis, before any treatment begins; a further cohort notes abnormal sperm quality at diagnosis.
