Men's Health
Report
Many men are reluctant to see a doctor when faced with health issues and often delay preventative care which can put them at risk of preventable disease. One of the reasons why men are reluctant to seek help is the traditional cultural script about masculinity. A 2014 study reveals that gender beliefs contribute to men's healthcare avoidance.
Women's Health
Report
Whatever your age, experiences or occupation, your physical and mental health and wellbeing should be one of the most important things to you.

Women have a unique and wide range of concerns, specialties, and focus areas such as Birth control, sexual health, the menstrual cycle, and breast care amongst others.
