Article Body:
Does male Andropause cause testosterone levels decrease with age? Research tells us that men tend to develop male Andropause more gradually than their female counterpart. Male Andropause can begin as early as the mid-twenties as men begin to lose male hormones including testosterone, thyroid, human growth hormone and DHEA. The aging process begins in earnest because of the loss of hormones.
Because female Andropause is so sudden, the effect of declining hormones is much more obvious. But these same effects in men are more gradual and over time are easier to accommodate, and as a result, they often don�t think to admit that they need help. For the most part, men don�t talk about Andropause. It�s not a manly thing to do. Between the ages of 35-45, men see a marked continual decline in keeping and maintaining erections. Ejaculation is not as powerful, and their stamina and endurance have waned as well.
What happens to men that treat male Andropause by replacing the male hormones? Here is a list of reported changes from men:
� Increase in mental quickness
� Improved enthusiasm for daily life
� Depression lifts that they didn�t know was there
� More energy and a desire to be more active
� Increase in sex drive demonstrated by night dreams, spontaneous erections and an overall increased interest in sex
� Improved muscle tone and reduced fat
Replacement treatments approximates the natural, endogenous production of the hormone. The average male produces 407 mg of testosterone per day. Several different types of replacements are currently sold including tablets, injectables, and transdermal systems. Anyone using this replacement therapy should be monitored by a physician regularly.
This therapy is contraindicated in men with carcinoma of the breast or prostate, as it may cause rapid growth of these tumors. Men with benign prostatic hypertrophy-related bladder outlet obstruction are also not candidates for this kind of replacement. Read this abstract for more detailed cautions.
Male Andropause can effect the levels of testosterone and as a result, the male sex drive. For more information, bookmark this page as a good testosterone source.
