Keep an Eye on Men's Health Issues

Men's Health Week is June 15 through 21. This is a time to bring awareness to health issues that affect men disproportionately, focus on getting men to become aware of problems they may have or could develop and gain the courage to do something about it.

Each year Men's Health Week becomes bigger. The more well-known the week becomes, the more men will feel like it's okay to talk about their health issues and not just push them to the side and ignore health problems away.
