Well Male Exam

A well male exam is a basic health screening that covers various aspects of men's health--both general physical health (such as blood pressure, weight, cholesterol levels, nutrition, and fitness) and reproductive health, including a testicular exam and sometimes STD tests as well. It is good to have a well male exam on a regular basis (every year, at best, or every few years) starting at least at age 21, or soon after becoming sexually active (the earlier the better!).
