“Thrush”
Contrary to stereotypes, candidiasis is also found among men, which can develop once morest the background of stress and weakened immunity. Prevention and treatment of this disease comes down to the usual rules of intimate hygiene and taking antifungal drugs.
Signs of candidiasis in men:
Gynecomastia
This disease, accompanied by an increase in the mammary glands, is common in men. Endocrine disorders lead to the appearance of gynecomastia – in the body of men, the female sex hormones estrogens begin to predominate.
Symptoms of gynecomastia in men:
-
Breast enlargement (may be unilateral or bilateral, uneven)
-
Increased sensitivity of the nipples;
-
Pathological discharge from them.
Varicose veins
It is believed that this disease is characteristic of women. But in fact, vascular damage is common in men, and it does not depend on hormonal fluctuations. Varicose veins can develop in overweight men, as well as in those who lead a sedentary lifestyle or “like” to lift weights.
First signs:
Breast cancer
The main danger is that men go to the doctor with this disease already in the later stages, when most treatment options are no longer effective. The treatment of men and women in case of detection of malignant neoplasms of the breast is similar in its principles, and the tactics depend on the size and prevalence of the tumor. Among the risk factors for breast cancer among men may be congenital pathologies, heredity, occupational diseases.
