If you’re a male and you’re reading this, congratulations! You’re a survivor. According to statistics，you’re more than twice as likely to die of skin cancer than a woman，and nine times more likely to die of AIDS.

　 There're many reasons for this--typically，men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke but perhaps more importantly, men don’t go to the doctor.

　　“Men aren't seeing doctors as often as they should，” says Dr. Gullotta. This is particularly so for the over-40s, when diseases strike.  According to a recent survey, 95％of women aged between 15 and early 40s see a doctor once a year, compared to 70％of men in the same age group.

　　“A lot of men think they’re unbeatable，”Gullotta says. “They only come in when a friend drops dead on the golf course and they think, if it could happen to him …”

　　Then there’s the ostrich（鸵鸟）approach. “Some men are scared of what might be there and would rather not know,” says Dr. Ross Cartmill.

　　“Most men get their cars serviced more regularly than they service their bodies,” Cartmill says. He believes most diseases that commonly affect men could be found by preventive examinations.

　　“Prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases. Besides, the final cost is far greater，it’s called death.”
