Men’s Health

Men’s health is more than one check-up. It includes physical health, mental wellbeing, sexual health, preventive screening and knowing when to ask for support.

At Botany Road Doctors, our GPs provide confidential care for men at all stages of life, whether you want to discuss prostate symptoms, stress, fatigue, heart health, sexual health or general wellbeing.

Speak to a GP if something does not feel right, or if it has been a while since your last health check

Prostate and urinary symptoms

It is worth speaking to a GP if you notice:

• urinating more often, especially at night

• weak urine flow

• trouble starting or stopping urination

• pain or burning when urinating

• blood in urine or semen

• pelvic, back or unexplained pain

Your GP can discuss your symptoms, risk factors, family history and whether further testing, such as a PSA blood test, may be appropriate.

Mental health matters too

Men often delay asking for help, but stress, anxiety, low mood, burnout and sleep problems are health concerns too.

A GP can help with:

• mental health assessment

• stress and burnout support

• Mental Health Treatment Plans

• psychologist referrals

• medication discussions if needed

• workplace or relationship stress

• ongoing support and review

Sexual health and confidence

Men’s health can also include sexual health, fertility and changes in sexual function.

You can speak with a GP about:

• STI testing

• erectile dysfunction

• low libido

• genital symptoms

• fertility concerns

• PrEP or sexual health referral advice where appropriate

Preventive health checks

Seeing a GP before symptoms become serious can help detect risk factors early.

A preventive check may include:

• blood pressure

• cholesterol

• diabetes risk

• heart health

• weight and lifestyle

• family history

• smoking and alcohol

• blood tests where appropriate
