Men and Hormone Replacement Therapy
There are many challenges facing men as they age. In addition to decreased levels of testosterone, other hormones taper off during andropause such as estradiol, DHEA, vitamin D, melatonin, human growth hormone and thyroid hormones. At the same time other hormones (e.g. insulin, estradiol, parathyroid hormone and cortisol) may accumulate in excessive amounts. As these hormone levels decrease, men experience a magnitude of symptoms that affect the genitals, bones, blood vessels, gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, cardiovascular system, skin, brain and energy levels. Due to the hormonal imbalance, men experience energy decline, loss of libido and sexual performance, weight gain, insomnia and emotional changes. There are also increased risks of cancer, osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. With proper implementation of Hormone Replacement Therapy, these risks and symptoms can be greatly diminished and sometimes treated altogether. Our Goals for Men at Forever Ageless
