To end off a week long celebration of Men’s Health Week, we at PeoplePledge would like to give you the run down on some of the top diseases that affect men more so than women in Australia.

Keep in mind that one of the main reasons for such a big difference in some of these diseases is the lack of knowledge and awareness in the prevention of and the early detection of diseases. Studies have found that females in Australia are more likely go to the doctors whereas men can feel embarrassed to take the first step.
