Checking your balls won’t find prostate issues. It’s for catching testicular cancer and you should have been regularly checking them since puberty. Just give em a quick feel about once a week in the shower.
As far as prostate exams, those used to start at 40 years old but they aren’t really recommended anymore unless you have a family history of prostate cancer or other risk factors. It turns out they rarely caught anything anyways.
I don’t think you will detect things in your prostate by checking your balls. i think regular urologist visits like every two years is recommended from 40, sooner if you have a family history of prostate or rectal cancer.
Jokes aside, from what age is it recommended to check your balls annually as (for early detection/prevention of prostate diseases)?
