TESTOSTERONE

Testosterone hormone replacement therapy for hormonal balance is central to a man’s well being. Without it, fatigue, anxiety, depression, loss of mental clarity and libido occur. Furthermore, a hormone deficiency in testosterone may lead to prostate problems, poor sexual performance, loss of muscle tone and mass, and the potential to develop osteoporosis this is why hormone replacement therapy is necessary.

Andropause

In a word, andropause is the male version of menopause and can be treated with hormone replacement therapy. It is caused by a decline in hormone production. Surprisingly, every man begins a gradual drop in hormone production around age 30. He loses approximately one to two percent a year until sometime between 40 and 55 years of age, his testosterone levels fall sharply and signify the beginning of andropause. When this happens, he often finds himself lacking in sexual drive, putting on weight, losing muscle mass and feeling sluggish, depressed and irritable. Yet most men in Scottsdale believe they have to tough out these symptoms as part of “getting older.”

Issues of masculinity and femininity can be touchy especially when it comes to hormone replacement therapy No man wants to hear that what makes him a man and feel masculine, by losing his testosterone. In years past when men without hormone therapy experienced a physical decline or emotional changes, they assumed that it was just a mid-life crisis thing. Their doctors most often encouraged them to accept their plight because they were’t ‘spring chickens’ anymore and did not refer them to a hormone replacement therapist. So, things like hair loss, paunchiness, or erectile dysfunction were either not talked about or dismissed as something you couldn’t do anything about. You just had to live with it.

Since the 1940s, however, research on the human body has established the importance of hormone balance and hormone replacement therapy in overall health. We know that testosterone deficiency can be linked to osteoporosis, heart disease, moodiness, depression, low energy levels, sexual dysfunction, and other problems that crop up in later life due to hormonal imbalance.

The symptoms of andropause if not treated with hormone replacement therapy are very much like those of menopause. Men frequently experience:

Without hormone therapy even more dangerous issues like an increase in body fat, weight gain, osteoporosis, loss of cardiac protection, lower good cholesterol and higher bad cholesterol can arise.

Each man’s symptoms vary, as does the age at which those symptoms for hormone replacement therapy occur. Hormone replacement therapists in are becoming more and more aware of andropause and beginning to scientifically diagnose it instead of simply offering a prescription that doesn’t address the basic problem.

*NOTE: Some of these hormonal imbalance symptoms can be due to other causes as well, and should be evaluated by a physician.
