What Are the Symptoms of Male Menopause?

Male menopause is the abnormal health condition caused by the reduction of the androgens in the men’s body. Male menopause is mostly linked with the old age because at this age generally the production of the androgens, specifically, testosterone is reduced or completely stopped. The sex life is affected adversely by the reduction in the level of androgens. But, I would like to add here that reduction in the androgens levels along with the sex life also affects your other body functions subsequently. Frequently during the study it was noted that not only the old men, but young men are also found to be suffering from the Male menopause. Here are some common symptoms of the male menopause—

  1. Fatigue is the most common symptom of the reduction in the levels of the androgens. Weight gain is found to be abundant once the level of the testosterone in the body is reduced. The excessive deposition of the fats is increased and the metabolism rate is decreased.
  2. Decline is the sex drive is most common symptom of the male menopause. The reduction in the level of the testosterone reduces the sexual hormones and as a result men feel disinterested in sex. Decrease in the sexual libido is prominent among the people having lesser amount of androgens.
  3. Memory loss is the warning sign for the reduction of the androgens. The nervous system is affected by the less amounts of the androgens in the body. The neurons in the brain that functions as the memory storage requires the androgens to perform their tasks at par. But, if the amounts of the androgens in the body are reduced then men find it difficult to remember thus, their memory is reduced a lot.
  4. Nervousness and anxiety is noted in the men once the amount of the testosterone in their body starts reducing. The men feel very much self conscious and their brains react in the disturbing manner. Even the men with less amounts of androgens feels more angry and they lose the temper easily.
  5. One of the most common symptom of male menopause is sleep Apnea. In male menopause observed in men, they find it difficult to fall asleep. Men suffering with the male menopause may not sleep well, and they can have a restless time during the last part of sleep before awakening. Not getting enough quality sleep over time can have serious health consequences.
  6. Lack of confidence and self-esteem is observed to be very common symptom of the male menopause. These men get disheartened very quickly and lose the hope with the small failures. The social life of the men suffering with male menopause is not much good. The feeling of negativity is common among these men.
  7. Obesity is found to be increased with the among the men whose androgens levels are getting reduced. The unusual increase in the weigh along with the thyroid problems are the indications of the reduction of the androgen levels.
  8. Problems in the vision are noted to be the indicators of the low levels of androgens. The normal eye functioning is also dependent on the some androgens that help to make your vision clean and clear. Reduction is androgen levels makes your vision blurred and you may have to use spectacles to view clearly.
  9. Joint pain and osteoporosis is observed as a symptom of male menopause. The synovial fluid in the joints requires testosterone to perform well, but due to its lower concentration the joint pain arises, which later on leads to the osteoporosis. The loss of the bone mass is on rise with the decrease in the androgen levels.
  10. You may even feel the digestion problems due to the reduction of androgens. Yes the metabolism rate is reduced considerably by the low amount of androgens. This later on results in the various health problems.

So, we should live a healthy lifestyle to stay away from the reduction in the androgen levels which causes male menopause
