Petra Ibum Adjah: Men’s Health Matter

Petra Ibum Adjah, Communications Manager for Pink Africa Foundation (PAF), shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Men’s Health Matter!

Prostate cancer, testicular cancer and men’s mental health struggles are often undiscussed for fear of stigmatisation.

Statistics show that:

  • 1 in 2 men worldwide are affected by cancer.
  • 1 in 8 men will develop prostate cancer.
  • 1 in 20 men will develop testicular cancer.
  • 75% of suicides are men.

I encourage men to prioritise their health as we collectively work to build a supportive environment that allows them to do so.”
