What To Expect During Male Menopause

We all know a lot about female menopause, but what about men and their version of it?

Just like women, men also go through some natural hormonal changes as they age. However, in women the drop in estrogen might happen a bit more suddenly than the drop in testosterone for men. This change in hormones is called andropause, but frequently and fittingly referred to as “male menopause”. We will be looking at what to expect during “male menopause”.

Here’s what to expect during “male menopause”, and what you can do about it…

1. Time Frame

While women can expect to see a big and sudden change in their hormone levels which happens within a few months or years, men experience it over a much longer period. The testosterone levels generally start to slowly and gradually decrease after the age of 30, but signs of it might only become more noticeable in the mid 40’s.
