Men, Take Charge Of Your Health!
Expat Living Singapore|November 2023
In every country with reliable health statistics, women live longer than men. Part of the reason for this gender health gap is that men fall ill at a younger age and suffer more chronic disease than women. Here, we look at some key men’s health concerns and what men can do to identify, treat and reduce the risk of developing these conditions.

Men, Take Charge Of Your Health!

Have a comprehensive health check

Doctors at Zest Clinic have been serving patients in Singapore with a wide range of health services and screenings for many years. DR SANKEERTH REDDY, GP and founder of the clinic, runs through some common health issues they help with.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) and premature ejaculation (PE)

ED is a common issue among men, but it doesn’t need to be a life sentence. There are a variety of treatments available to help improve sexual health and overall quality of life. Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive procedure that uses low-intensity shock waves to improve blood flow to the penis, promoting natural healing and improved erectile function. PE is also a source of stress for many men, and thankfully there are effective treatments to help regain control.

Snoring and sleep issues

Zest Clinic offers a comprehensive approach to diagnosing and treating sleep disorders, helping patients achieve restful, rejuvenating sleep. According to Dr Reddy, “the non-invasive and non-surgical laser-based treatment has successfully helped men with mild to moderate snoring issues to regain restful sleep.”

Testosterone deficiency

Androgen deficiency can lead to a range of symptoms, including decreased libido, fatigue, difficulty losing fat, sluggishness and mood changes. Specialised treatments can help balance hormone levels and boost overall energy and vitality.
