1.\u00a0 At birth and during the first year of life.<\/strong>
Main focus: physical development. Regulated by law and carried out in maternity hospitals and by family doctors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.\u00a0 At ages 16\u201319, late puberty or immediate post-puberty period.<\/strong>
Focus: physical development, sexual health, and future health risks. Funded by the Estonian Health Insurance Fund as a preventive healthcare service. Performed by a men's health specialist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.\u00a0 At ages 35\u201345, the post-peak physical period.<\/strong>
We recommend a comprehensive set of health screenings for the early detection of major general and male-specific health risks, and to intervene preventively if necessary. Performed by a men's health specialist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4.\u00a0 First prostate check at age 40.<\/strong>
Based on this examination, it is possible to fairly accurately assess the lifetime risk of prostate cancer and determine the optimal interval for future monitoring. Performed by a men's health specialist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Regular prostate checks starting no later than age 50.<\/strong>
Depending on physical changes and PSA levels, checks should be done at intervals of one, two, or four years. Performed by a family doctor, men's health specialist, or urologist.<\/p>\n\n\n
