Men’s Health Month

This June, we celebrated Men’s Health Month. This annual observance encourages men to take charge of their health. Men are less likely to report symptoms or see a provider compared to women, men are at a higher risk for diseases like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and lung cancer, and often have poorer quality mental health compared to women. This month is important for encouraging positive changes in men’s health to help fight these differences in health.
