YOU: The Owner's Manual

Prevent Cancer Foundation wants to make sure that every man gets up to on their routine cancer screenings. One good place to start is by encouraging men to take charge of their own health! Prevent Cancer Foundation's Early Detection Survey found that 20% of men don't make their own doctor's appointments! That’s right, nearly 1 in 5 men confessed that a relative or partner usually schedules their health care appointments for them.

The Prevent Cancer Foundation’s annual Early Detection Survey found that:

65% of U.S. men are behind on at least one routine cancer screening.
33% of men say they worry about experiencing stress while waiting for the results of a routine cancer screening.
More than a third of men reported that they are better about reviewing their bank or credit card statements (33%) or getting their car’s oil changed (32%), than they are about scheduling their routine cancer screenings.

The prevalence of certain cancers among men—including colorectal, skin (melanoma), oral and prostate cancers, all of which have routine screenings available—illustrates the importance of empowering men to take charge of their health during Men’s Health Month and all year long. 

The Prevent Cancer Foundation’s mission is to remind everyone – men and women – that when it comes to cancer, early detection can mean better outcomes.
