Question: What are the screening tests men should be getting in their 20s and 30s?

Answer: As a man in your 20s and 30s, there aren't a lot of screening tests you need. Knowing your cholesterol and lipids is one thing and knowing your blood pressure. By far the most important thing you can do, though, is establish healthy habits. Getting screening tests at this age will probably not identify diseases or risk factors but you can do a lot by maintaining healthy habits to protect your health in the future.
