Yet the truth is that a lot of men don’t have all the testosterone they need to maintain sexual performance - and also for their overall general health. Because while testosterone is associated in the public mind with sexual matters, it actually has uses that extend beyond the penis.

Since male menopause would definitely be a penis health concern, it’s good to spend a little time looking at andropause and understanding just what it is and...

In order to keep his health in tip-top shape, a man must know his whole body. Every little spot, every small ache, every strange change, all must be noticed.
