Men's Health Q & A

What is men’s health?

Men’s health is a large part of family medicine that focuses on the specific needs and health risks of adult men. It’s easy to neglect the health care you need, especially if it’s preventive care that you get without having previous symptoms or pressing concerns. 

Your providers at Raritan Family Healthcare help you stay on track and make your wellness a priority at every age. 

In general, men are more likely to engage in risky behaviors than women. These include:

  • Smoking
  • Drinking alcohol
  • Taking risks on the road
  • Forgoing doctor’s visits

These choices make them more prone to diseases and injuries than women. Additionally, there are medical conditions that affect men exclusively or disproportionately to women. Your providers at Raritan Family Healthcare help you explore your health risks and take the necessary steps toward lowering them. 

Which disease screenings do men need?

Disease screenings are preliminary tests that check for diseases before they show symptoms. They’re an important part of preventive care. You only need disease screenings when you’re at high risk, often due to family history, habits, or gender.

One disease screening that many men need is prostate cancer screening. All men should discuss prostate exams with their physician by age 50, and your provider at Raritan Family Healthcare can tell you more about the benefits and drawbacks of screenings based on your prostate cancer risk factors. 

Other disease screenings you might need eventually include lung cancer screenings, blood pressure screenings, blood cholesterol screenings, and screenings for colorectal cancers.
