As National Men's Health Week begins, ABC News medical correspondent Dr. Darien Sutton highlights a critical health screening that many men neglect, one that could save their lives. The segment focuses on preventive care gaps in male health, examining which tests men routinely skip and the medical consequences of that avoidance. Sutton explains why early detection matters and what men should prioritize in their health routines.
