Here's an uncomfortable question when did you last see your doctor for a prostate exam?
It's incredible how many men put off or just plain refuse to see their doctor about their prostate! Prostate Cancer kills more men in Australia than Breast Cancer kill women and yet we still refuse to talk about it.
Today I found out that one of my staff members has just had a family member diagnosed with prostate cancer at age 39. In her family alone 6 men have been diagnosed with it over the last 10 years and 2 have died.
Guys, this is real - there is no escape from it, you need to start having a PSA test from about the age of 35 if you have a family history and about 45 if not.
The women in our lives go through much worse in order to keep an eye on their health from being probed and squished by all sorts of contraptions. It's just a blood test & could save your life!
So go on what are you, a man or a mouse! Get to your doctor this week and get checked.
Have a good weekend
