During Men’s Health Month, it’s important to shine a light on two often overlooked but essential aspects of men’s wellness: Prostate and Testicular Health. Early detection and regular self-awareness can save lives.
Prostate Health
The prostate is a small gland that plays a big role in male reproductive health. As men age, the risk for prostate issues—including benign enlargement and prostate cancer—increases.
What to Do:
- Talk to your doctor about PSA (prostate-specific antigen) testing—especially if you’re over 50, or earlier if you have a family history of prostate cancer.
- Know the symptoms: trouble urinating, weak flow, or frequent nighttime urination may warrant a check-up.
Testicular Health
Testicular cancer is most common in younger men, typically between ages 15 and 35—but it's also one of the most treatable cancers when caught early.
What to Do:
- Perform monthly self-exams to check for lumps, swelling, or changes in size.
- See a provider promptly if you notice anything unusual—don’t delay.

Awareness, regular check-ups, and open conversations with your doctor can make all the difference. Early detection is key.
