Do's and Don'ts:

Getting up several times a night suggest benign prostate enlargement. This is NOT cancer. It's not a medical emergency.

Encourage men over 50 to get annual checkups. Prostate check are part of this.

Married men live longer than single men. One reason is that their wives encourage they to get regular medical care.

A good time for a check-up is around the man's birthday.

Say This:

Honey, now that your birthday has passed, have you made the appointment for your annual check-up? Want me to make it for you? When can you go? Want me to come with you? I'm happy to.
