As we age, both men and women will start to experience symptoms of hormonal imbalance. For men, this is called andropause. The symptoms for males and females are very similar, but for most men, as they age and their hormonal testosterone levels begin to decline, they will experience a lack of energy, low libido, loss of muscle, weight gain, decreased mental focus, hair loss and low metabolism.
Did you know that heart attacks notoriously peak around Christmas and New Year’s Eve?
Cardiovascular Disease
Studies have shown that testosterone minimizes several important risk factors for cardiovascular disorders and a heart attack. These include reducing cholesterol and triglycerides, reducing blood glucose levels, decreasing visceral fat mass, and normalizing blood clotting.
Hormone levels can be adjusted through Testosterone Replacement Therapy, which alleviates or in many cases eliminates the associated symptoms and life fluctuations surrounding hormones. There are even studies now that suggest hormone replacement therapy can help reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and dementia.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy for Men
Men should have 50 times more testosterone than estrogen. An enzyme called aromatase that converts male to female hormones regulated the balance. If everything is functioning normally, there is a normal ratio of male to female hormones or testosterone to estrogen, but when hormonal imbalances occur, it’s imperative to treat with hormonal therapy.
