Lung cancer
In general, men are more likely to receive a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime, according to a study presented by CNN. This is clear in the steep gender gap that exists in lung cancer deaths, with men two-and-a-half more times likely to die from the disease. While it’s not clear why this gap exists, certain experts believe it may be due to a difference in lifestyle factors, such as smoking, drinking, and generally avoiding seeing a doctor when you believe something is wrong.
