The Silent Threshold: Prostate Health

This episode interrogates the cultural, psychological, and systemic silence surrounding men’s health through the lens of Darelle Joiner’s lived experience with BPH. Dr. Kevin Washington uses Joiner’s narrative as a springboard to examine how stigma, delayed diagnosis, and fragmented health literacy converge to produce preventable suffering. The conversation moves beyond symptom management into a broader critique of how masculinity, denial, and misinformation obstruct early intervention. The episode ultimately re-frames prostate health as a gateway into a more expansive dialogue about male vulnerability, preventive care, and health sovereignty. Hosted on Acast.
