Fertility is complicated, and it’s certainly not just a problem for women — from hot tubs to the seasons, many factors can allegedly dampen a man’s potency. Read on to separate fact from fiction.

Read the story

Male anatomy

Men's anatomy centers on the male reproductive system: the testes, which make sperm and testosterone, the prostate gland, the penis and the urethra. It also covers how sexual development unfolds, along with muscle anatomy and how the heart works.

Men's checkups and tests

Checkups and screening tests can catch health problems in men early. They include the men's health checkup and doctor's office measurements, prostate, testicular and colorectal cancer screening, heart and stress tests, a mental status exam and family health history.

Men's wellness and behavior

Wellness in men rests on everyday habits and the choices that help prevent chronic disease. It covers exercise and resistance training, sports injuries, heart health and stroke prevention, stress, smoking and weight gain, social connection and emotional wellness, and occupational health.

Men's mental health

Men's mental health takes in depression in men and the wider range of mental disorders. It covers bipolar and mood disorders, schizoaffective disorder, PTSD, chronic stress and how it differs from anxiety, sleep deprivation from long work hours, and treatment with medications and brain stimulation therapies.

Men's reproductive health

Men's reproductive health rests on the male reproductive system, which makes sperm and reproductive hormones. It covers how that system works, male infertility and its causes, fertility preservation, fertility around cancer treatment and orgasm.

Men's sexual health

Sexual health in men spans desire, function and safety at every age. It covers erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, Peyronie's disease and other penis disorders, libido and orgasm, safer sex and condoms, vasectomy, gay and bisexual men's health, and sexuality in later life.

Men's prostate health

The prostate is a small gland in men that helps make semen. It's located just below the bladder in front of the rectum. Prostate problems, like benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostate cancer, and more can become more common after the age of 50. Learn about common prostate issues and what you can do to treat and prevent them.

Men's diseases and disorders

Diseases and disorders in men include conditions of the male organs and common diseases as they affect men. They range from prostatitis, enlarged prostate, testicular disorders and Peyronie's disease to andropause, osteoporosis, diabetes, heart disease and stroke in men.

Men's cancers

Cancers in men include cancers of the male organs and some, like breast cancer, that are rarer in men. They range from prostate cancer, early-stage to advanced, with its screening and hormone therapy, to testicular and penile cancer, male breast cancer and sexual health after cancer.
