A Woman’s Work is Never Done...
Women have always had a lot on their plate. They juggle careers, families, school, and now they are even taking care of men's health. Men are often hesitant to keep up with their health. Be it laziness or pride, more and more men are only going to see their doctor at the urging of the woman in their life!
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) August 9, 2006
It seems as if woman don’t have enough to do! When it comes to their own health men are generally don’t pay much attention. To them it is rather like asking for directions while driving. It now falls to the wives, girlfriends, mothers, sisters and even the executive assistants to insist on check-ups, following through on treatments and being fully proactive in the decision making process of health care. Perhaps it is that machismo gene that is at fault.
With September being Prostate Cancer Awareness Month a lot of medical message marketing is being directed at men. But doctors attribute the significant females of their male patients as responsible for men taking better care of themselves. Dr. Alexander Gershman, founder of the Institute for Advanced Urology, notes the best partner in health care is the female significant person along with the doctor to achieve maximum goals.
Prostate Cancer once considered a death sentence is now curable, controllable and treatable if caught in time.. Nearly a quarter million men in the U. S. will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year. The fact that patients can return to a previous full lifestyle is not lost on this responsive and receptive audience. Where once men diagnosed with prostate cancer refused treatment and became victims of the disease, rather than survivors, they are coming forward in unison all telling the tale and awarding kudos to their wives etc. for forcing their awareness and making them face and deal with their treatments, continuing follow-up monitoring and loosing the ostrich approach to health. Men with prostate cancer need to take an active part in making decisions about their care. However, shock and stress after the diagnosis can make it hard to think clearly. And that’s where their female partner can be of help.
When a new treatment effecting enlarged prostates, such as THERMATRX, (a MICRO WAVE innovative procedure) is in the news the immediate reaction of those natural born caretakers are to find out more, call their doctors and gather insight and information which they make sure is absorbed and diligently ingested.
