Abstract
• Evidence is accruing of associations between male reproductive health disorders and chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes. • The links between reproductive health and general health are under-recognised by medical practitioners and the general public. • Windows of opportunity exist for a more holistic approach to men's health when men present with reproductive health symptoms (such as erectile dysfunction) or the reproductive implications of chronic disease are recognised. • Further men's health research is needed in Australia to guide policy, innovative health promotion, and clinical practice.
