B) Low sperm count
C) Cryptorchidism as an infant
D) Family history of cancer
C

Caucasian men who have had cryptorchidism as an infant, regardless of whether an orchiopexy was performed, are at higher risk for incidence of testicular cancer. STIs, low sperm count, and family history of general cancers are not indicative of testicular cancer risk.
