Men's Health

Men's Health, from a medical perspective, refers to the comprehensive field of healthcare with a focus on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of health issues predominantly affecting males across their lifespan. It encompasses a broad spectrum of physical, mental, and social well-being concerns influenced by biological, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Key areas of focus within men's health include the management of conditions typically associated with male physiology such as prostate health, testicular function, and sexual health, alongside common concerns like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer.

Furthermore, the field of men's health addresses gender-specific risk factors and health behaviors, recognizing that men are statistically more prone to certain chronic diseases and often have different health-seeking behaviors compared to women. Preventative health, including regular check-ups and screenings, targeted at early detection of illnesses such as hypertension, high cholesterol, and colorectal cancer, is crucial. Additionally, Mental health issues, particularly depression and suicide, which are known to have a higher incidence in men, are integral aspects of men's health, emphasizing the need for tailored psychological support and interventions.
