Men are dying on average 5 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. Around 10.8m men globally are facing life with a prostate cancer diagnosis, testicular cancer is the most common cancer among young men. And across the world, one man dies by suicide every minute of every day, with males accounting for 69% of all suicides.
