Have you ever found yourself asking: “Why can’t men be much more like us?” Whether you’ve been or are a mother, daughter, wife or girlfriend you’ve probably been in a position where you’ve had to coerce the men in your life to visit the doctor. Let’s face it; historically men just do not keep up on their exams as much as women may! but it’s essential they do. Did you know that prostate cancer is the most common non-skin cancer in America , affecting 1 in 6 men?
Just in 2009 alone much more than 192,000 men were diagnosed with prostate cancer and much more than 27,000 men died from the disease. In fact, one new case occurs every 2.7 minutes and a man dies from prostate cancer every 19 minutes. It’s estimated that there are much more than 2 million American men currently living with prostate cancer! The good news is that the Prostate cancer foundation is doing everything they can to raise awareness for early detection. women can help with this fight too.

I encourage all healthy Mom’s readers to make sure the men in their lives get a prostate exam. Is your main man taking charge of his health?
