The same reasoning holds for fertility awareness. For fertility awareness, the constraint matters more than the feature list. Hormonal options interact with some medications, so disclose them to a clinician.

Reviewed from an operational angle, testicular self-check is less about features than constraints. The language here is deliberately clinical rather than suggestive.
