Men's Health
Men's Health encompasses how men can live a healthy life. This includes men's health issues such as exercise, fitness, heart disease, cancer, obesity, diabetes, hair loss, erectile dysfunction, heart attacks and strokes.
With a few lifestyle changes, many health risks for men can be drastically reduced. Health risks, such as diabetes, obesity, high-cholesterol, and high blood pressure can be avoided or treated with changes to diet and level of activity. In addition to living healthier, some men may be required to take medications to combat these common ailments.
Also in the category of Men's Health is the issue of Erectile Dysfunction. Erectile Dysfunction (ED, impotence) is the inability to achieve or sustain an erection for satisfactory sexual activity. Although not very common in young men, the incidence of erectile dysfunction increases greatly in men 50 years and older. There are a number of different treatments for ED, and the most common treatments are taking Erectile Dysfunction medications such as sildenafil (Viagra), Vardenafil (Levitra) or tadalafil (Cialis).
