\r\n

Each year, the Movember organization invites men all around the world to grow their moustache throughout the month of November to raise awareness of men\u2019s health issues, especially prostate cancer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n

\r\n

From November 1 to 30, men are asked to abandon their razors for a good cause: the annual Movember event. \u201cMovember\u201d is a contraction of \u201cMo\u201d (an Australian-English abbreviation for moustache) and \u201cNovember\u201d. By leaving their upper lip alone and letting their moustache grow for the whole month, men everywhere in the world can draw attention to men\u2019s health<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n

\n

What is the purpose of Movember?<\/h1>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\r\n \"\"
\r\n

The moustache-growing event is meant to incite family, friends and co-workers to inquire about the reasons for the new facial hair. This creates an opportunity for the new moustache-wearing \u201cbros\u201d to talk about men\u2019s health issues and the importance of donating to support research.<\/p>\n

Since the organization was founded in 2003 in Melbourne, Australia, more than 5.2 million \u201cMo Bros\u201d have raised nearly \u20ac650 million and funded approximately 1,250 research projects, mostly focused on treating prostate cancer.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n

\n

How many cases of prostate cancer are diagnosed each year?<\/h1>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\r\n

Prostate cancer accounts for about one-fourth of new cancers diagnosed in men in France.
\nIt is the most common form of cancer affecting men in France, with more than 50,000 new cases diagnosed in 2018, followed by lung cancer (31,000 new cases in 2018) and colorectal cancer (23,000 new cases in 2018). Prostate cancer is also the third deadliest cancer for men in France, causing 8,000 deaths each year, after lung cancer (23,000 deaths) and colorectal cancer (9,000 deaths).<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n

\r\n

The Movember organization and event spreads awareness of men\u2019s health issues and emphasizes the need to\u00a0better inform about cancer screening and treatment<\/a>. France first took part in Movember in 2012. The event is especially relevant in France, where the incidence of prostate cancer is high.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n
