Why is men's health so underpromoted and understudied still? (tooth, doctors, insurance)

Men may neglect their own health, but men are not the most neglected and never have been.

I see you're now following my threads, eh?

When you start a thread title with “Why” then you’re suppose to follow it up with evidence or source in the original post.

I’ve never seen or read anything that says men’s health is understudied.

There is a hierarchy in the USA, men are at the very bottom......single men are at the bottom of the bottom.

Its hard to study men without their participation. If men went to the doctor more, medical science would surely know more about the elusive creatures.

Honestly, there have been plenty of advances for men. Prostate issues. Viagra, etc. Even penile implant pumps. Issues they will go to a doctor regarding.

not a lot of value visiting a doctor's office, like talking to a box of rocks and at a $100/hr
majority of guys cant afford it

At the bottom of the hierarchy, eh? Is that why every single President and every single Vice President in this country has been male?

Is it because we still see men don't prioritize their health as much as women? And I am talking in terms of dieting and **** of course.

What are you talking about? The vast majority of studies are conducted on men.

Staffing models used throughout healthcare make it more welcoming of female patients than male. Men are just not a priority for healthcare.

That's just the natural state of things. It's true in most species of mammals, and also in different human societies. Whether it's biological or environmental is still under some debate, however the US healthcare system has virtually zero relevance in the disparity. Educate yourself before posting nonsense:
