Many Australian men avoid health check-ups, often due to uncertainty about what's involved. Understanding the process can help you take that important first step towards proactive health management.
Preventive health care can identify potential issues before they become serious problems. Regular check-ups allow for early intervention and better health outcomes over time.
Your doctor will ask about your medical history, family history, lifestyle factors, and any symptoms or concerns you may have. Being honest and thorough helps ensure accurate assessment.
A standard physical exam includes checking vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate), and may include assessment of various body systems depending on your age and risk factors.
Blood work can provide valuable insights into your health, including cholesterol levels, blood sugar, kidney and liver function, and hormone levels including testosterone.
