That's because you aren't getting the full equation if you're not increasing your body's HGH output with an HGH releaser like &lt;a href="http://www.genfx.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=5582" target="_blank"&gt;GenFX&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;a href="http://www.genfx.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=5582" target="_blank"&gt;GenFX&lt;/a&gt; is YOUR ticket to a new outlook on life. Forget feeling your age; now that increased HGH levels are at your fingertips, you're ready to turn back the clock.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;How you feel really is all in your head. At the base of the skull, to be precise. That's where the pituitary gland is located, the gland that produces Human Growth Hormone. The pituitary gland secretes this protein hormone that rebuilds cells and normalizes growth.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Have you noticed that you have to work twice as hard at the gym now to keep that spare tire off, while in your twenties you could eat whatever you wanted? Remember how quickly you used to rebound from flu season? Do you ever think back to when you had clear, smooth skin, before the appearance of crow's feet?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;That boundless energy and vitality was thanks in no small part to HGH. By age forty you have half the HGH you had in your twenties, and it doesn't stop decreasing. Some have gone to extreme measures to retain a youthful appearance and energy. But you can forget all about HGH injections - they're dangerous, can halt HGH production altogether, and cost tens of thousands of dollars annually. What you need is &lt;a href="http://www.genfx.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=5582" target="_blank"&gt;GenFX&lt;/a&gt;. With &lt;a href="http://www.genfx.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=5582" target="_blank"&gt;GenFX&lt;/a&gt; you get all of the positives with none of the harm to your body or pocketbook.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Getting back your vibrant self doesn't have to be hard. All it takes is this natural daily supplement. You can feel the difference &lt;a href="http://www.genfx.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=5582" target="_blank"&gt;GenFX&lt;/a&gt; makes in as little as a week, and it only gets better and better with extended use.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Don't believe us?

You can't deny that your energy has plummeted, that your having a harder time just maintaining your current shape. You find yourself in a depressed state of mind, and you're just not interested in sex like you used to be.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;While it's true that as you get older your body slows down, you may be one of the millions of men suffering from andropause without even knowing it. Andropause is the male equivalent to women's menopause, hitting in middle age, usually between ages 40 and 50, but in some cases as early as 35 or as late as 65.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;A decline in hormones at a steady rate is part of getting older. Men lose 10% of their testosterone every decade after 30. But still, some men lose much more than this. These are the men who are experiencing andropause.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;The less testosterone your body is producing, the more you feel older than your age. We forget how much this invisible steroid hormone does. But you need to pay as much attention to your hormone balance as you do to your cardiovascular system, or your muscles. After all, it's testosterone that helps keep the rest of you in shape. Just consider all that testosterone does for you.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Physically, there are numerous parts of the body that are affected by a decrease in testosterone. Bone density is a big factor. Over 10% of men have osteoporosis, resulting from a lack in bone density. This increases the chance of hip, wrist, and spine fractures, as just a few examples of areas of your body that are affected. Sexual function is also affected, resulting in difficulty maintaining erection, and weak erections. Muscles lose their strength, and the immune system is weakened.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's more than just physical, though. If you suffer from andropause you may have felt your moods change, either dramatically or gradually. Depression is often a common symptom of low testosterone. Along with physical sexual functions that we discussed above, your desire for sex may have decreased as well.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Andropause is detectable through blood tests, but in most cases not just an ordinary blood test will do. An ordinary blood test can tell your doctor how much testosterone is in your system, but that doesn't tell him how much of it is available for your body's use. Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) attaches itself to testosterone and other sex hormones, rendering them useless. Also, different men need different amounts of testosterone to function at their best.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;You could request a more in-depth analysis from your doctor. But while some men choose to discuss with their doctor medical actions, such as hormone replacement therapy, the best course of action is to treat your body well so that it can reach its natural potential. This includes the healthy lifestyle we hope you're already following, like getting enough sleep, keeping your stress low, and making sure to fit exercise into your busy schedule, but we'd like to recommend something you probably hadn't thought of - supplements designed specifically for andropausal men.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4442" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; is a supplement made from quality ingredients, made to promote your body's natural testosterone production. Because it's a supplement and not a medication, you don't need a prescription and it's free of any side effects. You've undoubtedly heard of how good ginkgo biloba is for you, rejuvenating your blood flow and improving sexual function, or that Brazil's acai fruit is a great antioxidant. These are just a few of the herbal ingredients. On top of these though, &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4442" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; also combines Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which converts into testosterone and other sex hormones, and Growth Hormone (GH), which has been applauded by medical researchers as the fountain of youth.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;So don't just sit back and let old age happen to you. By following a regimen, you can slow down and even reverse aging.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=3992"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www2.worldniche.com/2/p9g3n002.jpg" border=0&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1510837127679770682-4285301253103764720?l=malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/feeds/4285301253103764720/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1510837127679770682&amp;postID=4285301253103764720' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/4285301253103764720'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/4285301253103764720'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/2009/01/you-havent-looked-forward-to-signs-of.html' title='You haven&apos;t looked forward to the signs of aging, but they&apos;re finally here'/><author><name>Richard W.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10830638795678884030</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zlWLiOTQ3p4/Scb2Rm7-rbI/AAAAAAAAADw/TjwRcAtSAGE/S220/c635.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510837127679770682.post-3118669453428795303</id><published>2008-12-08T18:15:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-08T18:18:34.822-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='andropause'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='testosterone replacement'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='middle age in men'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='is their male menopause'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='male menopause symptoms'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='decline in hormones'/><title type='text'>Andropause sounds like just another new age buzz word, doesn't it?</title><content type='html'>&lt;h1&gt;Andropause&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Andropause sounds like just another new age buzz word, doesn't it? After all, men can't have "male menopause," because they don't menstruate, and middle aged men don't experience hot flashes or any of the other symptoms accompanying menopause.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;That doesn't mean there aren't similarities. Sure, men can reproduce later in years than women (there are cases of men having children in their 80s!), but they still experience a decline in hormones. You probably never even gave a moment's thought before about the health of your testosterone, but the average man has 30% less testosterone at age 50 than he had when he was 20. This drop in testosterone has some serious ramifications to one's health. For instance, one of testosterone's functions is to increase bone density. The less testosterone, the higher the chance for osteoporosis, and the accompanying risks of fractures, most notably hip fractures. As you age your metabolism slows down, and weight begins to add up in your middle and around your organs. This is another result of low testosterone.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Doctors have studied this decline in testosterone since the 1940s, but haven't really known what to do about it. It has been on the back burner, as older men look for an easy fix for sexual dysfunction, one of the many symptoms of andropause. Rather than fixing the problem, prescriptions simply offer a temporary fix. Many men don't know that they could continue on with a healthy sex life, and improve their general well-being, by taking action to promote their body's maximum testosterone release.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;While you were younger you could neglect your health to a certain extent, relying on your body's youth, now you have to work to feel your best. We all know that we should be exercising, getting a good night's sleep, and eating a well balanced diet. But now it's time to put this in action. &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4452" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; is a natural supplement in pill form that can get you started in the right direction. It's a proprietary blend of herbal ingredients and supplements made for maximum testosterone boost. Because it's a non-medical pill, there is no need for a prescription and it's side effect free.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Besides containing herbal ingredients ginkgo biloba, used for thousands of years to promote circulation and memory, and Muria Puama, for increasing sex drive, it also includes Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)-promoting agents, which is then converted into sex hormones. &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4452" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; also stimulates the pituitary gland to increase the body's release of human growth hormone, essential for many functions such as creating organ tissue and increasing metabolism.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=3992"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www2.worldniche.com/2/p9g3n002.jpg" border=0&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1510837127679770682-3118669453428795303?l=malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/feeds/3118669453428795303/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1510837127679770682&amp;postID=3118669453428795303' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/3118669453428795303'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/3118669453428795303'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/2008/12/andropause-sounds-like-just-another-new.html' title='Andropause sounds like just another new age buzz word, doesn&apos;t it?'/><author><name>Richard W.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10830638795678884030</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zlWLiOTQ3p4/Scb2Rm7-rbI/AAAAAAAAADw/TjwRcAtSAGE/S220/c635.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510837127679770682.post-5656497328308643088</id><published>2008-11-27T18:34:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-27T20:59:39.332-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='aging and men'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='increase sex drive'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='slow metabolism'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='erectile dysfunction'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='anabolic steroid'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='low testosterone'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='weight gain'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='naturally raise testosterone'/><title type='text'>Slow Metabolism And Weight Gain As We Age</title><content type='html'>&lt;h1&gt;Weight Gain&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;You've noticed as you've gotten older that it's gotten harder to stay in shape. It does more than just affect the way you look. Your energy has taken a nose dive as well. For too long you've relied on your metabolism to do your body's work for you, but as your metabolism slows down it slows you down. You're slower and more sluggish than before. Sure, some of it is the daily grind getting to you. But it doesn't have to.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;As the population ages, more men than ever are working out. Over 57 million Americans are at the gym at least 100 days out of the year, according to Newsweek, a record high. When you were in your twenties you put in half the effort you do now at the gym - so why don't you have the results to prove it? You're getting that "tire gut," and your formerly strong muscles may as well be putty.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4482" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; is an herbal supplement created to take the edge off of aging, and give your fitness much-needed help. We all get older every year, but that doesn't mean we have to feel it. Combined with a healthy diet, regular sleep, and exercise, &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4482" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; will make the most of your years. You'll get back that energy you thought was gone forever, and watch the fat melt away as your muscles gain back their strength.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;You know that testosterone is important for your body, but you might not know how. Testosterone is an anabolic steroid responsible for a number of functions, such as sex drive, energy levels, strengthening your immunity, and increasing cellular tissue, which results in strong muscles. Your testosterone levels are much higher than women's- ten times more, in fact. But your body's t testosterone production takes a nose-dive as you age. Testosterone availability starts declining by twenty years old, and typically levels drop 10% for every decade after 30. Some men's testosterone levels are much lower than normal, resulting in andropause, otherwise known as the male menopause.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4482" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; has a man's needs in mind, and this proprietary blend is just for you. Its ingredients combine to increase your testosterone levels. It acts as a stimulant for testosterone production. It's your body at its best, aided by all-natural plant extracts and the highest quality proteins.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's a whole body makeover. Besides feeling your body get the kick start it needs as you've gotten older, &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4482" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; affects almost every aspect of your health. You'll feel more alert and focused, as your mind becomes sharper. Your memory will be stronger than it has in awhile. And that's not including the restoration of your sex life. If you're like many men, you've lost your libido. Maybe you've even suffered from erectile dysfunction, unable to get or maintain a strong erection. &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4482" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; gives your erections the power they've been lacking and add a little lust back to your life, thanks to the natural increase in testosterone, the hormone responsible for your sex drive.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=3992"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www2.worldniche.com/2/p9g3n002.jpg" border=0&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1510837127679770682-5656497328308643088?l=malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/feeds/5656497328308643088/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1510837127679770682&amp;postID=5656497328308643088' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/5656497328308643088'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/5656497328308643088'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/2008/11/slow-metabolism-and-weight-gain-as-we.html' title='Slow Metabolism And Weight Gain As We Age'/><author><name>Richard W.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10830638795678884030</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zlWLiOTQ3p4/Scb2Rm7-rbI/AAAAAAAAADw/TjwRcAtSAGE/S220/c635.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510837127679770682.post-4055372490675478419</id><published>2008-11-22T17:27:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-22T17:29:14.255-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='decreased sex drive'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='no energy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tired'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='stressed out'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='natural sex enhancer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Low Male Libido'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='increase energy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='low sex drive in men'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='feeling sluggish'/><title type='text'>Low Male Libido</title><content type='html'>&lt;h1&gt;Low Male Libido&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;As men age, many suffer a decrease in sex drive. This isn't as natural as you'd think; in a study conducted by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), men still on average feel as much sexual desire as they did in their middle age. There's more at play here than simply getting older.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, find out why you're just not up for it like you used to be. There are many factors that could be to blame, both physical and emotional. Most cases of low libido are mental rather than physical. Stress is the number one cause behind a low libido - while sex is a great way to get your mind off of things, you've got to be ready for it in the first place. Any other negative feelings, like guilt or depression, can also be at work.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Once you've exhausted all of those possibilities and you've determined that your dip in sexual desire isn't emotional, then it's on to consider physical causes. A profound decrease in testosterone may be to blame.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;As men age, they lose 10% of testosterone a decade. Many men lose more than this, resulting in a male form of menopause. Millions of men are going through this right now without even realizing it. They're so convinced that they're just experiencing growing older. But feeling tired and out of sorts is not necessarily a universal experience when you're in your forties or fifties. There are men out there who are still in great shape through their golden years - then why should you twenty years younger feel like an old man?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are so many other ways that your body is affected by a dip in testosterone, such as a decrease in bone density, an increase in body fat, and balding, but it's really what it does to a man's sexual health that he really starts to take notice. Depression is a symptom of andropause, and while this in itself affects your sexual desire, it also affects every aspect of your life.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;There's no need for you to live at half-mast. Life doesn't stop when you're 40, or 50, or 60. So get yourself in order and feel like you did in your thirties. You have the power to change your body around, by engaging in regular exercise and healthy eating. Men going through a mid-life crisis has become a cliché, but we're hoping that you take your middle years as an opportunity to take care of yourself. Too many men let their health slide in their youth, relying on a good metabolism. Now it's time to pay it back.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Try &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4462" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; to enhance your testosterone. Unlike medications meant to increase libido and sexual function, &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4462" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; has no side effects and you don't need a prescription. It's also meant to give your whole body a boost, promoting testosterone production, stimulating growth hormone, and improving blood flow and oxidization. &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4462" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; is also packed with aphrodisiacs that have been used for hundreds, or some even thousands, of years. So while you enjoy a greater sex life, your body gets a new start.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1510837127679770682-4055372490675478419?l=malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/feeds/4055372490675478419/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1510837127679770682&amp;postID=4055372490675478419' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/4055372490675478419'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/4055372490675478419'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/2008/11/low-male-libido.html' title='Low Male Libido'/><author><name>Richard W.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10830638795678884030</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zlWLiOTQ3p4/Scb2Rm7-rbI/AAAAAAAAADw/TjwRcAtSAGE/S220/c635.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510837127679770682.post-763776895907611436</id><published>2008-11-22T17:18:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-22T17:21:56.345-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='andropause'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='aging and men'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='body changes in men'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Male Menopause Andropause'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mens midlife'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='low sex drive in men'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='getting older'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='male menopause'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='midlife crisis'/><title type='text'>The Male Menopause" Andropause" is the male's answer to female menopause</title><content type='html'>&lt;h1&gt;Symptoms of Andropause&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;While it's true that everyone ages, some are hit harder than others. Every aspect of their body and mind may be affected, from their sex drive to their mental alertness. They may be suffering from andropause, like millions of men around the world, without even knowing it.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nicknamed "the male menopause," andropause is the male's answer to female menopause. While men are able to reproduce much later in life than most women, they undergo many physical and mental changes as their body ages. But unlike women, not all men experience andropause; Men experience a steady testosterone decline, at a 10% loss every decade starting at thirty, but some  feel the affects more strongly than others.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Testosterone is responsible for far more than just sex drive, which is the first thing many think of when this steroid hormone is mentioned. It's more than just your libido that's affected; in fact, there's little of your mind and body that isn't touched by a decrease in testosterone. When you think of how much testosterone is responsible for, it's little wonder that its absence is missed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;While doctors and medical researchers have been aware of this condition and its symptoms since as early as the 1940s, until recently there has not been a way to successfully diagnose andropause. A blood test can determine testosterone levels. It's important to note though that every man is different in how much testosterone they need to function at their best. Blood tests also doesn't measure how much of that testosterone is available; Sex Hormone Binding Globulin, or SHBG, increases as we age, which attaches itself to hormones like testosterone. This inhibits the testorone from functioning like it should. While bioavailble or non-free testosterone testing is available, it's only done by certain labs. This means, how you feel is important is the most important diagnosis.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;You may suffer from andropause if you have experienced some of these symptoms:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Difficulty sleeping&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Lack of Energy&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sexual Dysfunction/ Low Libido&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Depression/ Anxiety&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Irritability&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Weight Gain&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Excessive Sweating&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Hair Loss&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;The most significant symptom of andropause, and the condition that have many men taking notice that something is wrong, is erectile dysfunction. Often they will address this problem through prescription medication, rather than addressing the problem in its entirety, living with the other negatives symptoms.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many of the symptoms of andropause men have simply taken to mean as signs of aging. While it's true that aging is often accompanied by these symptoms, it's a matter of severity.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;While some men in extreme circumstances undergo hormone replacement therapy, that's a fairly drastic step. Consider the alternative. You can increase your testosterone levels, naturally. While we all know that diet and exercise, combined with good sleep and lowering stress, is the key to great health for men and women alike, it also boosts testosterone production.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4472" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; can also help. It's a blend of natural testosterone boosters available in pill form that is especially designed for men, to reach their full potential. Using both natural ingredients and supplements, &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4472" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; covers all your bases, from sexual dysfunction to mental alertness. You don't need a prescription, and there have been no reported side effects.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4472" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt; takes the mess out of figuring out which plants in what amounts, and contains only the highest quality ingredients. Muira Puama increases libido and virility, and ginkgo biloba helps augment memory. These are just two of eight plants found in &lt;a href="http://www.provacyl.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=103681&amp;b=4472" target="_blank"&gt;Provacyl&lt;/a&gt;. Meanwhile, Luteinizing Hormone, or LH, synthesizes and releases testosterone in the body, and Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) changes into sex hormones.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1510837127679770682-763776895907611436?l=malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/feeds/763776895907611436/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1510837127679770682&amp;postID=763776895907611436' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/763776895907611436'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1510837127679770682/posts/default/763776895907611436'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malemenopauseandropause.blogspot.com/2008/11/male-menopause-andropause-is-males.html' title='The Male Menopause&quot; Andropause&quot; is the male&apos;s answer to female menopause'/><author><name>Richard W.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10830638795678884030</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zlWLiOTQ3p4/Scb2Rm7-rbI/AAAAAAAAADw/TjwRcAtSAGE/S220/c635.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
