The European Men’s Health Forum (EMHF) announces the launch of its pioneering prostate question and answer service in English, Spanish and German - the first prostate research project to ask men what they want to know rather than telling them what they need.
The ‘Your Prostate’ website answers questions from men about all aspects of prostate health from the most general of concerns though symptoms, diagnosis, support and treatment to follow-up care. Building on the success of the English-language service run earlier this year, the website is now available in three languages: English, Spanish and German.
Men across Europe are often reluctant to go to the doctors. This is a far easier way for them to get the information and support they need. But as well as being an invaluable service to individual men, this is an important research project. Prostate problems remain an issue that men feel uncomfortable discussing and seeking help with. Yet health policy remains clinically driven without any foundations in what men actually experience. This project aims to remedy that.
Specialist urology nurses and urologists with an interest and experience of working in the field of prostate health will answer the questions men ask on the website.
