Introduction

A male health issue is one that fulfils either or both of the following conditions: it arises from the physiological, psychological, social, cultural or environmental factors that have a specific impact on boys or men; it requires male-specific actions to achieve improvements in health or wellbeing at either an individual or a population level.

Be self-aware and take responsibility for your health and don’t ignore symptoms or complaints.

  • For your exercise
    The body gets very comfortable when you always do the same workout. Vary your exercises – with an age-appropriate mix of aerobics, muscle training and stretching.
  • Eat well
    Getting enough nutrition is crucial. Focus on nutrients rather than calories and eat a variety of healthy foods.
  • Prioritise sleep
    You need at least seven hours.

Mental health is really, really important. Think about several things: Are you drinking too much? Are you paying attention to signs of depression or bipolar disorder, which often get missed? If you have a family history of mental illness, suicide, and/or substance abuse, you really need someone to help you review the signs and symptoms.

Choose a Doctor you’re comfortable with, so you can openly discuss all aspects of your health.
