Tech, Telehealth Help Close Men's Health Gaps

News summary

Men are less likely than women to have a primary care provider, leading to missed preventive screenings and later detection of serious conditions, which contributes to a shorter life expectancy for men. Black men, in particular, face higher risks for hypertension and prostate cancer, highlighting urgent disparities within men’s health. Experts emphasize that regular doctor visits and proactive health management are vital to preventing complications, regardless of current perceived well-being. The growth of telehealth platforms is making care more accessible and reducing stigma by providing private, convenient options for both general and sensitive health concerns. Wearable devices and recovery technologies such as sleep trackers, red light therapy, and sauna treatments are helping men monitor and improve habits, addressing problems early. These developments reflect a cultural shift toward more proactive, tech-enabled, and holistic approaches to men’s health.
