Male Menopause, is it Real?
In a long list of taboo topics, male menopause is talked about in hush tones. Most men today consider the idea a joke, however, it is no laughing matter. Scientific facts show that men go through a menopause as well. This series of events is all triggered from a decrease in testosterone levels.
What are the Symptoms?
A drop in testosterone does not mean just a mans sex drive will suffer. Low T will also result in lower bone density, muscle mass, fatigue, and lower energy. Note that these symptoms can be easily confused with depression, medication side effects, stress, and thyroid issues. The only true way to figure out if you have male menopause is to test your testosterone levels.
How Much Testosterone Should I Have?
The average amount of testosterone is determined by several factors genetics, race, lifestyle, and much more. After the age of 30 your testosterone will decrease about one percent per year. A yearly check up should suffice at managing your testosterone levels.
What Can I Do to Boost My Testosterone?
There are various things that you can do to increase your testosterone. The easiest way to start is to find a regular intensive activity. Working out or sports is an excellent way to boost your levels and when done regularly it will provide a constant increase. Your other option is testosterone replacement therapy.
