Men’s Health in Focus. New Exhibition at Olivia Star"},"content":{"rendered":"

Testicular cancer most often affects young men. The average age at diagnosis is just 35, with almost 80% of cases occurring in individuals between 20 and 44 years old. This is an important reason to discuss men’s health and prevention. This Thursday, November 5, the lobby of Olivia Star will host the exhibition “YES to Balls!”, prepared as part of the Dziennik Ba\u0142tycki’s social and educational project.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Following the “You, Women, Are Strength” exhibition, dedicated to breast cancer prevention, Olivia Centre continues the conversation about health and the importance of early diagnosis. This time, the focus will be on men.<\/p>\n

Men’s Health in Numbers<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is important to speak openly about prevention, as cancer can affect men of all ages. Testicular cancer is a good example of this. Although an average of about 1,200 cases are diagnosed annually in Poland, it is the most common malignant neoplasm among men aged 15\u201344.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With age, however, the risk of prostate cancer increases, which is the most frequently diagnosed malignant neoplasm in men in Poland. According to data from the National Cancer Registry, in 2023, it accounted for 24.5% of all new malignant cancer diagnoses in this group.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

These data show how crucial oncological vigilance is at every stage of life. Knowing one’s own body, reacting to alarming symptoms, and consulting a doctor about the need for appropriate tests can help in early detection of the disease.<\/p>\n
