Movember: Raising Awareness for Men’s Health

Movember is here, and it’s not just about growing a moustache; it’s about raising awareness for men’s health. The Movember movement began in Australia but has since become a global phenomenon, drawing attention to crucial issues that affect men’s well-being.

What Is Movember?

Throughout November, men all over the world grow mustaches to support and raise awareness for various men’s health issues. The movement encourages men to take charge of their health, open up about their concerns, and seek medical advice when needed.

The Main Issues: Mental Health and Prostate Cancer

Movember primarily focuses on two significant men’s health issues: mental health and prostate cancer.

🧠 Mental Health: 1 in 8 Aussie men will experience depression, and 1 in 5 will face anxiety. Let’s change the narrative and start the conversation.
🦁 Prostate Cancer: 1 in 6 Australian men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. Early detection can save lives.

With Evercare, your monthly membership provides you with access to unlimited appointments, with no gap fees. Take control of your health.
