Movember vs. Cancer (1/3 Through Men’s Health Month)

Happy Movember. We're a third of the way in. The Movember Foundation aims to change the way we think about men's health by putting a fun twist on this serious issue. Using the mustache as a catalyst, the idea is to bring about change and give us guys the opportunity and confidence to learn and talk about our health and take action when needed.

The reason for the poor state of men’s health are numerous and complex and include:

• Lack of awareness and understanding of the health issues men face.
• Men not openly discussing their health and how they’re feeling.
• Reluctance to take action when men don’t feel physically or mentally well.
• Men engaging in risky activities that threaten their health.
• Stigmas surrounding mental health.
• Men are 24% less likely than women to have visited a doctor within the past year.
