INDIANAPOLIS — Real Men Wear Gowns brings awareness to health issues men might face and the importance of seeking care.

Beginning at age 45, discuss with your healthcare provider which colorectal cancer screening is best for you based on your risk factors.

Abnormal growths, called polyps, can form in the colon or rectum. Some polyps could turn into cancer. Screening tests can find polyps so they can be removed before turning into cancer. 

Men have higher rates of colorectal cancer and higher rates of death from it, according to the CDC.

About 64% of colorectal cancer patients had not died from their cancer five years later, but that was dependent on the stage of cancer when diagnosed.

According to the CDC, symptoms could include:

  • A change in bowel habits.
  • Blood in or on your stool (bowel movement).
  • Diarrhea, constipation, or feeling that the bowel does not empty all the way.
  • Abdominal pain, aches, or cramps that don't go away.
  • Weight loss and you don't know why.
  • More information on colorectal cancer can be found here.
