Men’s Health Week is a great time to learn more about cancers that only affect men 💙
Some cancers specifically affect men, including prostate, testicular and pe**le cancer. These cancers develop in parts of the male reproductive system and can affect people at different stages of life 👨‍⚕️
For example:
• Prostate cancer starts in the prostate gland and is the most common cancer in men in the UK
• Testicular cancer often affects younger men and may present as a lump or swelling
• Pe**le cancer is rare but can develop on or under the fo****in
Treatments can vary depending on the type and stage of cancer, but may include surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy, with support available throughout 💙
It’s important to know your body and speak to a healthcare professional if something doesn’t feel right. Early detection can make a big difference 👍
This message is inclusive of trans women and non-binary people (assigned male at birth), who can also be affected by these cancers and should feel supported to seek advice 💙

Worried about how much screen time is too much for your child? You’re not alone 💙
New UK guidance helps parents and carers build healthy screen habits for children under 5 in a simple, realistic way 👍
For younger children:
• Under 2s – avoid screen time where possible, except for shared activities like video calls or looking at photos together
• Ages 2–5 – aim for no more than 1 hour a day, and less if possible ⏱️
It’s not just about time, but how screens are used. Choosing slow-paced, age-appropriate content and watching together can support learning and development 📺
Too much screen time can take away from the things that matter most at this age, like sleep, play, and time spent talking with parents and carers 🧸
Try setting simple boundaries like no screens at mealtimes or before bed, and swap screen time for activities like reading, playing, or chatting together 📚
