"Manopause" What the…?

by Scott on May 8th, 2008

Manopause. Is it a true medical term? No. It’s better know as a testosterone deficiency that mainly happens in older men and is not all that uncommon. Hotmedicalnews.com posted a great article on the effects of testosterone deficiency in older males. Here is a short excerpt.

Testosterone deficiency like this is not rare in middle aged and older males. Because testosterone levels in men gradually decrease with age, abnormally low levels are seen in 4% of males between ages 40 and 70, and in a higher proportion of men over age 70.

Testosterone deficiency in males can cause loss of energy, depression, decreased sexual desire, trouble with erections, decreased strength, increased fat mass, and low bone density. Testosterone supplements improve most of these problems.
