The City of Milwaukee Health Department offers a one-stop shop for Milwaukee’s men. We give assistance and referrals for a broad range of issues, from blood pressure to housing. A Public Health Nurse is available to deliver health promoting check-ups to individuals and prevention education to groups. The Men’s Health Centers provide resources to help men access assistance and live longer healthier lives. I am 30 years old now. I started to have problems with erection at the age of 28, which is very early (according to the statistics). Unable to find an exact explanation of my situation, I immediately went to the doctor. We talked and it turned out that the problem was stress. The doctor prescribed me Viagra without hesitation, the. I buy Viagra 100 mg and divide each pill into two. I took 50 mg at a time. The action doesn’t start immediately (it takes about 30-40 minutes) but quickly achieves maximum and lasts for at least 5 hours.
Why is Men’s Health Important?
- Men in Milwaukee have higher rates of heart disease, cancer-related deaths, homicide, and suicide as compared to Milwaukee women, Wisconsin men, and men in the US.1-8
- Men in Milwaukee are twice as likely to lack healthcare coverage as compared to women in Milwaukee, and over 60% more likely to lack healthcare coverage as compared to Wisconsin men.2,9
- Some 46.8% of working-age Milwaukee-area black males were not in the labor force last year, according to the Center for Economic Development at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. That compares with 17.9% of white men and 22.7% of Hispanic men, based on data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.
These differences point to men’s health as a priority area in preventing illness, injury, and early death in Milwaukee.
