We found a weird experiment on how to test for testicular cancer …using pregnancy tests.

Reddit blew up recently with a story about a teenage boy who took a home pregnancy test as a joke, received a positive result, and wound up being diagnosed with testicular cancer.

Sounds like a hoax, right? Well, CNN says it’s actually possible to detect some (note: not all) types of cancer, because the Beta-HCG hormone (which are in a woman’s placenta during pregnancy – and that’s what pregnancy tests look for) is also found in some types of cancer and tumors.

Andy took the test today...
