يوم جديد – جديد الطب الوقائي للحفاظ على صحة الرجل



Men’s health Men die younger than women, have a weaker immune system and are more burdened by illness during life. Men are more reluctant to utilize healthcare services. Mental health: Depression is more common in women but deadlier in men (men are more likely to commit suicide). Covid-19 hits more men than women in terms of both incidence and death because of either their weaker immune system and/or their more risky behavior. In preventive healthcare, men should focus on:
– Cardiovascular disease
– Cancer (not only lung cancer, or prostate, but also testicular, pancreatic, colon, skin and stomach).
– Mental health (manage stress) Anti-aging medicine offers skin therapy (botox and fillers to preserve facial beauty), hair loss prevention and regenerative therapies to preserve health in general or address specific organs. Key recommendations for men:
– Protect skin from sun – Limit alcohol intake (2 drinks max per day)
– Manage stress
– Thorough annual check up to include cardiovascular check-up and screening for colon, lung, and prostate cancer.
– Self-examination of testicles starting early age (20)
– In case of family history or risk factors, do the genetic test to assess cancer risk
– Discuss sexual health with your doctor. Erectile dysfunction calls to check for occult vascular disease. #OTVLebanon
