Maybe you can share with us this new interest that we have as gynecologists have looked after women and our focus has been women. I understand now that you re looking at a different aspect. Yes, about thirty-five years ago I was together with Bob Grimlot when the Menopause Society was created. When I retired from my clinical work at the Sheba Medical Center in Israel seven years ago, I decided that we men are underprivileged. Men live seven years less than women live, and men have health problems and rarely are not aware of them.
Women go for prevention, and women are trained for prevention.
Women have their gynecologists and confidantes, and they can talk with them about many, many personal things. Men don t have a men s health physician. They go to the urologist for repair, and they go to the internist for repair. You shouldn t be like a girl running because you have some pain. They re healthy when they go during their pregnancy to the obstetrician in order to have a healthy and good pregnancy, and they go with their child to the pediatrician in order to keep the child healthy.
