Why do we ignore men's health??? |
The Human Health Services, whatever it is called, refuses to pass a bill that uses an equal amount of emphasis on men's health as it does women's health. Same thing with the American Cancer Society. Also, with cancer awareness on the rise, it's all about breast, cervical and ovarian cancer, but prostate and testicular cancers are being highly ignored. Why is this??? Do we not want men to live as much as we want women to live??? I even heard that the Father's Day race, which once raised awareness and prevention of prostate cancer, is now only going to raise awareness and prevention of breast cancer. Is this true??? Until recently, medical understanding of women's health stemmed largely from research on men--their anatomy, disease progressions and drug interactions. But women are not "little men." Biological differences between the genders range from organ anatomy (e.g., women have proportionally smaller hearts) to disease manifestation (e.g., boys with attention deficit disorder, ADD, tend to act out more than girls with the same disorder). Thus, there is an ongoing need for medical treatments that are based on a gender-specific understanding of human health. |
