Men’s Health Specialist

What are the common men’s health issues?

While men can encounter numerous health issues, two significant concerns that are not often openly discussed include hormonal imbalances and prostate health.

Hormonal Imbalances

Hormones play a crucial role in regulating various bodily functions, and imbalances can significantly affect a man's health. Testosterone, the primary male sex hormone, influences muscle mass, bone density, libido, and mood. Low levels of testosterone can lead to symptoms like fatigue, depression, decreased strength, and sexual dysfunction.

Men can also experience hormonal fluctuations that impact their risk for conditions like diabetes, thyroid disorders, and adrenal insufficiency. Recognizing and treating hormonal imbalances early can help maintain overall wellness and vitality.

Prostate Health

Prostate health is a major concern for men, especially as they age. Conditions such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostate cancer, and prostatitis can affect a man’s urinary function and sexual health.

BPH, commonly known as prostate enlargement, affects about 50% of men by age 60 and 90% by age 85. Symptoms include frequent urination, difficulty starting and maintaining a steady stream of urine, and nocturia (frequent urination at night).

How often should I see my men’s health provider?

It’s recommended that men visit their health provider at least once a year for a comprehensive health check-up. However, if you experience symptoms like fatigue, mood changes, urinary problems, or changes in sexual function, you should schedule an appointment sooner.

Symptoms related to hormonal imbalances or prostate health issues may be uncomfortable to discuss, but they are common and typically treatable with the right care.
