Share this with the men in your life💕

On this International Men’s Day, take ownership of your health. Preventive testing is not optional, it is essential.

Men are statistically more prone to cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, prostate disorders, and late-stage cancer diagnoses due to delayed screening and lower healthcare seeking behaviour.

A scientifically backed preventive protocol includes:

🔬 Metabolic & Endocrine Evaluation

– Fasting glucose, HbA1c, fasting insulin, and HOMA-IR to assess glycemic control and insulin resistance.
– Thyroid panel (TSH, Free T3, Free T4) for metabolic regulation.
– Serum Vitamin D & B12 for neuromuscular and neurocognitive function.
– Total + Free Testosterone to evaluate androgen deficiency, libido disturbance, loss of muscle mass, and fatigue.

❤️ Cardiovascular Risk Assessment

– Lipid profile (LDL-C, HDL-C, triglycerides)
– High-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) for vascular inflammation
– ECG annually after 30
– Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) score after 40 to quantify atherosclerotic plaque burden

🦠 Infectious Disease & STI Screening

– HIV 1 & 2, Hepatitis B surface antigen, Hepatitis C antibody
– Syphilis, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea panels
Untreated infections can compromise immunity, fertility, and systemic health.

🧬 Cancer Screening

– PSA levels after 40 for prostate cancer
– Colonoscopy at 45 for colorectal cancer
Early detection dramatically improves prognosis.

🦴 Bone & Musculoskeletal Health

– DEXA scan after 45 or earlier if symptomatic
– Serum calcium & Vitamin D for bone mineral density

👁‍🦱 Sensory & Dental Health

– Biennial eye exam, glaucoma screening after 40
– Dental evaluation every 6 months
– Hearing assessment every 3–5 years

Are collagen supplements worth their hype?? Most scientific studies as of now do not suggest any definite benefits from collagen supplements 📰 Clinical trial shows only tiny, short-term skin benefits and research on joints, bones, nails, and hair is weak and mixed.

Your body makes collagen naturally with the right diet. You don’t need a supplement. (source: www.health.harvard.edu/blog/considering-collagen-d…)

💻 Many studies have limitations. Trials are usually small, involve short durations, and are often funded by supplement companies to sell their product. (source: my.clevelandclinic.org/health/articles/23089-colla…) Lifestyle factors matter more than supplements.

Protecting your skin against UV damage, avoiding smoking, limiting sugar, having a healthy diet, and prioritizing sleep work far better and are cheaper.

Too many moms suffer in silence.
Because they’re told “it’s normal.”
Because they’re afraid of being judged.
Because no one told them this could happen.
But you deserve to feel better.
You deserve support.

I’m 60.

And people still ask me, “When will you retire?”

But here’s what I’ve learned—
As a doctor, and as a woman who refuses to slow down:

You don’t age because the years pass.
You age when you stop moving.
When you stop learning.
When you stop living.

You age when you stop believing in yourself.
You age when you silence your curiosity, your laughter, your fire.
You age when you hush the little child inside who still wants to explore, dance, create.

I’ve seen it up close—in my own family.
The moment people retire from an active life, the decline begins.
Not just in the body, but in the spirit.

So this World Brain Day, let me remind you—

Your brain is still listening.
Still learning.
Still growing.
Still adapting.

Use it.
Challenge it.
Nourish it.
Because when you stop using it,
you slowly start losing it.
Keep moving.
Keep learning.
Keep believing.
That’s how you stay alive—in every sense of the word.
