As a man ages, he becomes more distinguished, right? The silver foxiness in him comes out, he knows what makes a scotch good, and he has perfected his business portfolio. However, with all of those obvious benefits, he can also expect a dip in testosterone, which can change the game a bit. It’s usually around the late 40s and early 50s that a man may experience some noticeable changes, and the previously young penis morphs into an aging penis. The aging penis has learned much in life, but n...

As men age, lots of things happen. They get wiser, they tell long stories about the trials and tribulations of walking 18 miles to school in two feet of snow wearing only flip-flops and calling Facebook “the Facebook.” Something that can also happen to men as they age is andropause. Never heard of it? Andropause is famously known as male menopause. Generally, this happens to men around the age of 50 when testosterone levels begin to dip. This can make a man feel a little or a lot differen...

Male menopause is a condition that affects men as they age. Also known as andropause, it describes the age-related changes in male hormone levels. Male menopause is most often denoted by a drop in the hormone testosterone in men 50 years of age or older. For the uninitiated, testosterone is made in the testes. It does more than just control libido; it also helps fuel mental and physical energy, maintain muscle mass, and regulate the fight-or-flight response. Unlike female menopause, not all ...

Although many people have negative feelings toward aging, getting old is still better than the alternative (as has been said many times). In recent times, there has been a lot of talk about male menopause (also sometimes called andropause), a change in men which is purported to be similar to the "change of life" that women experience. 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...

When talking menopause, most people automatically associate it with middle-aged women, but men can also experience something similar. Symptoms creep up slowly, until one day, a normal work schedule becomes almost overwhelming due to unexplained fatigue; and a sex-drive that was always geared high has slowly faded away. Usually, when these symptoms begin to occur, they are followed by the one symptom that gets the most attention, and a visit to the doctor- erectile dysfunction. It is at that ...

When it comes to male menopause, there is quite a debate swirling about the question of just how common it really is - or if it is real at all. The fact of female menopause is well-documented and is an accepted part of life for every woman, as they will all go through ‘the change.’ But what about men? Doesn’t it make sense that a guy will suffer through the same decline in hormone production that women deal with at some point in their lives? In fact, men who practice good penis care an...

Time changes everything - including the penis. A man who practices regular penis care might notice a few small changes here and there as he gets older, until one day things are decidedly different than they were just a few years ago. There might be signs of male menopause. There might be issues with the health of the area around the penis, including the scrotum. In most cases, these changes are perfectly normal signs of aging.

Male menopause - myth or fact?

It is common knowledge that women enter a period of life known as menopause, when their hormone levels change drastically and they no longer menstruate, signaling the end of their childbearing years. Men also experience a similar decrease in male hormone levels, and in order to draw a parallel to the female life cycle, this dropping off in androgen levels is popularly referred to as male menopause. However, while men can be affected by some of the symptoms ex...

Hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and irritability are signs of menopause a women - and often her partner - become all too familiar with. While men are lucky enough to not have such a physical deadline related to their sexual health staring them square in the face, they do experience a decline in sexual functioning, albeit a more gradual one. Andropause, or male menopause, is a condition that occurs in some aging men and is similar to menopause experienced by women. While certain effect...
