In the men’s clinic, there are often middle-aged men come to consult or see the doctor, the symptoms are mainly sexual function is not as good as before, poor energy, easy to fatigue fatigue, forgetfulness or insomnia, and even appear to be temperamental, hot flashes and so on. In fact, you may not realize that middle-aged men with the above symptoms may be suffering from male menopause syndrome. Do men have menopause too? The answer is yes. When men are over 40 years old, due to the gradual decline of androgen level, it may lead to a series of symptoms, such as irritability, hot flashes, fatigue, forgetfulness, insomnia, etc. In terms of sexual function, it is manifested as reduced libido, poor erection hardness, etc. However, male menopause is not the same as female menopause. However, male menopause is different from female menopause, female menopause has obvious menopause process, while male menopause has no similar obvious signs, the appearance of the above symptoms may be slow to appear, this phenomenon is called male menopause, also called androgen partial deficiency syndrome. Male androgens are produced by the testes and adrenal glands and affect several bodily functions. Since androgens help in the production of proteins, they are important for penile erection and normal sexual behavior. They also affect a number of metabolic processes in the body, including the production of blood cells by the bone marrow, bone formation, the metabolism of lipids and carbohydrates, liver function, and the growth (hyperplasia) of the prostate gland. According to research, androgen levels in men decline by about 10 percent per decade after the age of 30. Male menopause is associated with lower androgen levels. Every man experiences a decline in androgens, but some men may have lower androgen levels than others and are more likely to experience the symptoms of male menopause. Some studies have suggested that smoking and high cholesterol levels increase the risk of early menopause. Typical symptoms can be categorized into general symptoms, such as increased body fat, decreased muscle mass and strength, decreased height (caused by osteoporosis) and loss of vitality; psychological symptoms, such as emotional ups and downs, depression, anxiety, lack of motivation and insomnia; and sexual and urinary symptoms, such as decreased libido, decreased hardness of erection, or even impotence, urinary frequency (urinating once a day or more at night), a thin urinary line, or even dysuria (related to prostate enlargement). (related to prostate hyperplasia), etc. Male menopause is not scary, male menopause is a normal physiological aging process. If middle-aged men can understand this process and get psychological help in time, most of them can pass through the changes brought about by menopause smoothly. If your menopausal symptoms are severe, after diagnosis by a professional doctor, you can take androgen supplementation therapy under his guidance, or use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate your symptoms, the latter of which is more effective in improving your symptoms. In addition, with a balanced diet, regular exercise, effective alleviation of psychological stress, smoking cessation, alcohol restriction, etc., the symptoms of male menopause will be effectively relieved in three to six weeks after treatment.
