The ministry highlighted that men’s health remains an underserved area, with male life expectancy in 2023 estimated at 72.5 years, compared to 77.4 years for women. High-risk behaviors such as smoking and alcohol consumption are also major concerns, with data indicating that 35.7 per cent of men smoke — 40 times higher than the rate among women.
