Men’s Health and Andropause

It is very well known that in the health field, men do not regularly seek medical care until much later in life when compared to women. Healthy women begin seeing physicians annually from the time they are young adults. The practitioners at RenŪ Progressive Medicine have specialty training in men’s health, optimizing healthy aging, muscle mass and weight support, hormone balancing, prevention of chronic disease, and libido support as men age.

What is Andropause?

The term andropause has been used to denote age-related decline in androgen hormone concentrations in men. Androgens refer to the male sexual hormones of testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Decreased androgen concentrations contribute to sexual dysfunction, loss of muscle mass and function, frailty, gain of fat mass, cognitive impairment, and loss of body hair. The decline in male sex hormones occurs at a slower rate and at different times when compared to women and menopause, thus deficiencies can go overlooked.
