A Closer Look at Men's Health: Risks, Screenings, and Prevention

Men die almost 6 years earlier than women are almost 4 times more likely to die by suicide in Illinois. This June, we’re recognizing Men’s Health Awareness Month and discussing how Illinois is taking steps to close this gap. In this episode of This Is Public Health, Andrew Lerch, Section Chief for Men’s Health at IDPH, shares insights on the current state of men’s health in Illinois, why preventive care is often overlooked, and how we can better engage men in their own health journeys.    Episode Resources  IDPH’s Men’s Health Webpage: https://dph.illinois.gov/topics-services/life-stages-populations/mens-health.html [https://dph.illinois.gov/topics-services/life-stages-populations/mens-health.html]   Men's Health Initial Assessment 2024-2025: https://dph.illinois.gov/topics-services/life-stages-populations/mens-health/initial-assessment-2024-2025.html [https://dph.illinois.gov/topics-services/life-stages-populations/mens-health/initial-assessment-2024-2025.html]   988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: https://988lifeline.org/ [https://988lifeline.org/]

Delivering Change: Improving Maternal and Infant Health in Illinois

In this episode of This is Public Health, we're covering the important topic of maternal and infant health and what we’re doing to improve health outcomes in Illinois.
