Men's Health

In practically every country in every generation, men seem to have a shorter life expectancy than women. The most famous paper on this subject, Why Men Die Younger, was written in 2002 by actuary, Barbara Blatt Kalben. The reasons outlined are partly biological, but men's approach to their health - or lack thereof - plays a role too. The good news? The major threats to men's health are no secret. Even better news: Changing male attitudes to health can vastly improve prognosis and outcomes. Dr Badrulhisham Bahadzor, Urologist, and Dr Surendran Thuraisingham, Cardiologist, exchange views on this issue. Brought to you by Sunway Medical.
