It could be because women are more concerned with their physical beauty, appearance…
because men are very visually attracted/stimulated (much more than women) So maintaining youth, and health in general, is more important to women than it is to men. Or at least men are not as consistently concerned with it as women.

question of economics!
historically women have been treated as productive assets and supplier of labor to run the industry .
Harrem originate from this concept . one man with 10 women can produce 10 children , but
ten men with one women can only produce only one .
In olden days in any war it were women who were prize catches,
captured men were slaughtered or put in field like prisoner camps to feed the progeny .
Women are depreciating assets with far less productive period than men.
so realities dictate women are taken better care .
This phenomenon has been well studied in monkeys and apes and other animals
Primative men behaved in this way, even modern men behave the same way but little discretely

Because women want the information,
They care more about their own and their families’ health.
They are the ones who buy health products.
They are usually at home when the products are advertised.
Sorry to disillusion you but a lot of it is based on MONEY.
Men should pay more attention to their own health especially in the area of prostate checks back problems and foot problems.
I hope men will take more interest in their health in the future.

Actually, because this is the newest field of study, considering that fifty years ago, women were not treated any differently than small men in the healthcare field. Finally, doctors, medicine companies, and health studies are focusing on the problems that are unique to women and not just treating them in the same way that was once used to treat men. So, natually, this is a movement that has sparked interest, women being different and responding differently to treatment than their male counterparts. So, it is in the news and is a growing area of healthcare. And considering that we are interested in keeping all members of society healthy, this is a trend that has great potential for human growth and development. Plus, women are likely to be more active in their own care when they are being addressed as women and not as men. So, it has economic and social importance too.
