**Andropause - Male menopause - Symptoms - Causes - Diagnosis - Treatment**
Andropause is the male equivalent of female menopause. It is generally characterized by a decline in sexuality and energy due to the decreasing level of male hormones, such as testosterone.
Are you a middle–aged male whose enthusiasm is slowly waning and whose middle name is ‘irritable’? Take care you could be on the threshold of ‘Male Menopause’!
We all know about the female menopause but how many of us have heard of andropause, considered by some as the ‘male menopause’?
‘Mid-life crisis’ is the euphemism of choice that is used to refer to the symptoms of a ‘waning’ male. Today, it has been widely accepted by the scientific world that males encounter ‘andropause’- a term that refers to the paucity of vital male hormones. This, in turn, leads to an array of symptoms -from feeling ‘blue’ to low libido.
