<abstract language="eng">The goal of this review was to search for information about postgraduate education in medical schools and family medicine residency training programs on the topic of men¡¯s health. The databases Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus and PubMed were searched using MeSH terms such as ¡°male¡±, ¡°health education¡±, ¡°curriculum¡± and ¡°family physician¡± and ¡°general practitioner¡±. Other types of literature and ephemera were also reviewed using the same search terms. With the help of a health librarian at the University of Saskatchewan, three articles were identified initially. By exploring the references of these articles as well as with documents found on various websites, a total of 108 articles and nine textbooks were in the end reviewed. The literature that were found, were divided and analyzed in three distinct categories: curriculum in general, Family Medicine curriculum in Canada and the current status of men¡¯s health training in the world. There is a paucity of literature on the topic of men¡¯s health education in Canada. Other countries such as Australia have done some work in this field but the details of the specific curriculums are lacking.</abstract>
