Official journal of the International Society of Men’s Health (ISMH)

Journal of Men's Health (JOMH) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal that aims to publish cutting-edge information on men’s health issues and illnesses, focusing on men’s reproductive health, sexual health, cardiovascular health, and cancer prevention and treatment. It also explores illnesses that affect both men and women, such as certain cancers and injuries, with a particular emphasis on conditions that are more prevalent in men or exhibit distinct patterns in men. In addition, JOMH strongly encourages research on gender differences in health, highlighting how biological, psychological, and social factors contribute to variations in disease prevalence, progression, and outcomes between men and women. Furthermore, JOMH addresses broader aspects of men’s health, including mental health, lifestyle factors such as diet and exercise, stress management, as well as men’s access to healthcare and preventive measures.
