A6: They (& all of us) should encourage elected officials to make men’s health a priority. One giant step is to create a federal Office of Men’s Health. There are 5 for women’s health but 0 for men. Shocking, since men’s lifespan is 5.25 years shorter than women’s. #Dadication

A6: Create male-friendly clinics—most are set up for women and that’s a big turn off for lots of guys. They also need to make sure their male and female staff are trained on men’s health issues and know how to talk to men and know what resources to recommend. #Dadication

A5: BTW, it's also important to have friends. Men are far less likely than women to have a close friend. And social isolation increases risk of depression and other mental health issues as well as physical health concerns, including cardio. #Dadication

Q5: Orgs like @menshlthnetwork are working on trying to get providers (and teachers and coaches, etc) better trained to recognize mental health issues in their male patients. #Dadication

A5: We need to take the lead. If you need help, get it—and tell others that you did, especially your kids. Asking for help is a sign of STRENGTH, not weakness. #Dadication

A4: Use salt in moderation, stay away from sugar-filled drinks and processed foods, and exercise. Exercise alone is practically magic when it comes to improving health. #Dadication

A3: But you also need to be proactive: Know what screens and tests you should be getting at what ages and ask for them! Check out getitchecked.com/ and @menshlthnetwork #Dadication

A2. It is extremely important. No man would let their car go without an oil change. Isn’t our body just as important as the car we drive? We have keep up with our mind and bodies. There are things we can do daily and then we need to go to our doctors on a regularly #Dadication

A2: It’s perhaps the most important thing a man can do. It’s essential to have baseline readings for health indicators like blood pressure and PSA and to have a relationship with a trusted provider. #Dadication

A1: There's also a shortage of providers, men of color. That keeps a lot of guys from reaching out. #Dadication

A1: And when men do go to the doctor, particularly for mental health issues, providers often misdiagnose them because most of the diagnostic screening tools are based on flagging female symptoms of depression. #dadication

A1: At the same time, society at large tends to pigeonhole men into the role of tough guy and expects men to take one for the team, man up, or whatever. Same result: guys don’t get help when they need it. #Dadication

A1: Gender roles and stereotypes keep a lot of men from asking for help when they need it—as though it were a sign of weakness. #Dadication
