| It is a known fact that health is a physical, mental and emotional well-being. A sound state of health is pivotal to lead a delightful life, irrespective of gender. But in this advanced era, where advancement is misconstrued to have been achieved, the health conscience unfortunately takes the back seat. In this hectic set up of lifestyle, the male sect is found vulnerable to fall victim to the ill-health. Despite the society is male dominated, men do not have an upper hand in the field of health and life expectancy. This is evident from the fact that women outlive men in most societies. Adding fuel to the fire there are many things that work against men like smoking and drinking. There are certain health disorders that affect only men viz. prostate cancer, colon cancer, low testosterone etc. Men get affected by cardiac related problems more in number than women do. Predominantly, men associate themselves with their profession which triggers stress in them. Moreover, men’s health pertains to the issues that are unique to the anatomy of the male human body. It is obvious that reproduction is the only activity that sustains the human race. Infertility in men is therefore a dangerous impediment for the human race to last long. Men’s sexual problems include factors like erectile dysfunction, loss of interest in sex, ejaculation problems and malfunctioning of testicles in producing sex hormones. As referred earlier prostate cancer is the third most principal cause for death from cancer in men. For the first time National Men’s health week was conducted in USA in 1994. In UK, men’s health forum was established in 1994 which was originally incorporated by Royal College of Nursing. But later it was completely transformed into charity in 2001. In 2005, the first professor of men’s health, Alan White, was appointed in the Leeds Metropolitan University, north-east England. In the United States, men’s health related grievances are redressed by men’s health Network. MHN is a non-profit motto educational organization which comprises physicians, researchers, public health workers and other health professionals. MHN aims at improving the health and physical well-being of men, boys and their families by means of survey, data collection, education campaigns and work with health care providers. The MHN uses different aids like screening in the workplaces and public venues, sponsoring conferences and symposia, and promoting awareness periods like Men’s health month and men’s health week. With the incorporation of Toronto Men’s health network in 2000, by Joe Jacobs, the importance of men’s health was made widespread in Canada’s largest city. The organization has taken up the job of conducting forums based on men’s health annually. At present, James Hodgins heads the organization. By all accounts, it is considered the oldest and most recognized organization in Men’s health advocacy. Visit: http://www.smarthealthshop.com or contact: Health Produts DH Smart Health Shop, P.O.
