The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that 13.2% of American men aged 18 and older are considered to be in fair or poor health, and at least 40.5% aged 20 or older are battling obesity and high blood pressure. Men are statistically less likely to visit a doctor for medical issues than their female counterparts and, as a result, have higher mortality rates for preventable diseases.
Men can be particularly susceptible to a number of different health conditions ranging from heart issues to prostate problems. Men’s health is multifaceted and encompasses topics such as mental, heart and pelvic health, family planning, hormone regulation, and stress management.
Men's Health Month is recognized annually in June and is a time to have meaningful, health-related conversations to bring awareness to the health challenges faced by individuals who are assigned male at birth.
