It's the Last Week of Men's Health Month, but not the end of BPH!


Men's Health Month officially ends in 5 days till the next one, but that doesn't mean men's health will stop being important! The conditions affecting men, including BPH (prostate enlargement) will unfortunately continue to plague men for a while. However, we can do our part by raising awareness and offering support for men. Encouraging more health checks and research, offering more support (accountability, motivation, a listening ear, etc.) and taking action within ourselves is what men's health month strives for not just in the month of June, but all year round. 

Whether you're a man dealing with mental health issues like depression, a prostate condition like BPH with frequent urination, or you're neglecting your overall health, there's time to get back on track to improve quality of life. Knowledge is power, and caring for your body and mind will allow you to enjoy those activities you love, like writing with fountain pens, playing some golf, riding your convertible along the highway, and travelling (once it's safe to do so). 

Have you spread the message of men's health? The slogan of men's health month is "show us your blue," because the color blue is used in solidarity with men's health, including prostate health issues. Not enough men are talking about their health, so let's provide a safe space to welcome and spread their voice! 

Remember to practice good nutrition, safe physical activity, and management of BPH. Read our blog posts to learn more about BPH.
