Hello

I am currently project managing a piece of work for the European Men's Health
Forum (EMHF) designed to gather the experiences of men on the issues that they
feel are important in two areas of health that are often seen as difficult to
ask questions about: prostate health and sexual dysfunction. These also have a
major impact on men's relationships with other people and are therefore very
important to deal with as quickly as possible.

This is a web based initiative using two sites where men, or their partners, can
seek anonymous advice from specialist health professionals in a private
conversation. There is no need to give any personal information and no one is
trying to sell anything!

EMHF is a charity that aims to make it easier for men to take responsibility for
their health, and as such is looking to gather information on what men find
important about these aspects of health, so that this can form the basis of a
report to policy makers. You can read more about them here: www.emhf.org

The first site, is at www.yourprostate.eu where men can ask anything they want
about issues to do with the prostate. We are also interested in men's thoughts
on what was the point where they felt they had to seek support or diagnosis.
This site has a specialist urology nurse available to answer any questions about
these issues.

The second site is at www.malehealthquestions.eu and here men can ask questions
about erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation in total confidence.
Specialist urologists with experience of dealing with these issues are available
to answer questions in English as well as many other European languages.

This is not designed to duplicate or replace any of the great work being done by
men's health organisations, but as a complementary piece of research. We would
really appreciate it if you would visit the sites and use them, or tell anyone
else about them that may find them useful.

If this breaches the protocol of your forum then please accept my apologies. And
if anyone wants further information please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Kind regards
