EIGHT SCREENINGS MEN OFTEN PUT OFF (AND WHY THEY MATTER)

Many health problems start quietly. A simple screening can catch them early, when treatment is easier and outcomes are better. Here are eight check-ins many men skip, but shouldn’t. (The full blog post link is in the comments)

1️⃣ BLOOD PRESSURE CHECK: High blood pressure rarely has symptoms. It can raise the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease.

2️⃣ CHOLESTEROL SCREENING: A blood test can flag high LDL and triglycerides early, before heart disease shows up.

3️⃣ DIABETES SCREENING (BLOOD SUGAR OR A1C): Type 2 diabetes can build for years without clear signs. Screening helps prevent nerve, eye, and kidney damage.

4️⃣ COLON CANCER SCREENING: Colon cancer is one of the most preventable cancers. Screening finds polyps before they become cancer.

5️⃣ PROSTATE HEALTH SCREENING: For some men, a PSA blood test and a focused exam can help spot concerns early. Timing depends on age, family history, and risk.

6️⃣ SKIN CANCER CHECK: Skin cancer is common and treatable when found early. A quick look at changing spots matters.

7️⃣ STI SCREENING: Testing protects you and your partner. Many infections have no symptoms at first.

8️⃣ DEPRESSION SCREENING: Stress, low mood, sleep changes, and irritability can be signs of depression. Screening opens the door to real help.
