Men Who Lose their Hair

Andropause is sometimes called the male equivalent of female menopause. There are differences in symptoms, but both start around the age of 40-50, and both are a result of endocrine glands, which no longer produce the same amount of hormones that they did at a younger age. In men, one of the symptoms of the dwindling supply of hormones is hair loss - baldness.

The word andropause comes from the word androgen, which merely means any male hormones - such as testosterone - responsible for male characteristics. Although male reproductive organs do not shut down during middle age, as do female reproductive organs, the glands produce a gradually diminishing amount of hormones, as a man gets older.

Not only baldness is a symptom of andropause - decreased muscle mass and strength, loss of libido, insomnia, nervousness, depression, low energy and weight gain can be symptoms as well. So are these results of aging inevitable? What can be done about it? That is what we will explore in the following paragraphs.

Hormone replacement therapy is often recommended for women in menopause; it can as well benefit men during andropause. Two keys to making hormone replacement therapy work are replacing the missing hormones with bioidentical hormones and replacing all the diminishing hormones, not just one or two.

Many hormones being sold as replacements are not the same as the ones in the body, notably estrogen made from pregnant horse urine. But if you put a bioidentical hormone in the body, the organs will recognize and use it.

The amount of hormones lost may not be the same in every person - different ages and physiques and diets affect hormone loss. To determine the exact amount of which hormones to replace, one needs medical testing.

The idea is to bring the dwindling hormones of the body up to the same level as a youthful body. Testing, evaluation and replacement of the hormones needed can make a big difference to a man who has been experiencing unwanted weight gain, lack of energy and interest in life, trouble sleeping and loss of hair. These things can slow, stop and even reverse. It’s like being young again.

There are no side effects to this natural procedure that slows the aging process. Many thousands of people have experienced new life and vigor from hormone replacement therapy. There’s no reason to age quickly - slow it down! Enjoy youth.
