Andropause
​Andropause occurs when your body has decreasing testosterone and increasing estrogens. This leads to decreased libido or erectile dysfunction, increased chest and stomach fat, and multiple other symptoms as listed below.
​
-
At least 25% of males over 50 have low testosterone, many starting to lose testosterone as early as the mid 20’s, decreasing exponentially as they age
-
Adequate testosterone is absolutely critical to overall well being
-
Low testosterone is common in men with diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, muscle and bone loss, sleep apnea & other chronic diseases
-
Linked to early heart disease
-
Underdiagnosed

As T levels drop and men age, erectile dysfunction (ED) can be an issue. There is evidence to suggest that men that have intercourse less than once a week have greater potential for ED.
