Abstract	According to the World Health Organization (WHO), intimate partner violence is one of the main risks to women's health worldwide. Men can also become victims of domestic violence; as well as female victims tend to present their injuries first to the family doctor or the emergency room. Domestic violence against men is thus a current topic for doctors of all specialties. Studies identified by the search provided prevalence rates of domestic physical violence against men ranging from 3.4% to 20.3%. Most affected men were violent towards their partners. 10.6-40% of them reported being abused or mistreated as children. Alcohol abuse, jealousy, mental illness, physical disability, and short relationship duration are associated with a higher risk of becoming a victim of domestic violence. Reported consequences of violence usually include minor physical injuries, impaired physical health, mental health problems such as anxiety or disruptive disorder, and increased use of alcohol and/or illegal drugs.
