About Andropause

Andropause, often referred to as male menopause or late-onset hypogonadism, is a medical condition characterized by a gradual decline in testosterone levels in aging men. An endocrinologist, a specialist in hormone-related disorders, manages this condition through a comprehensive approach. This involves a detailed clinical evaluation, blood tests to measure hormone levels, and the development of a personalized treatment plan. Management is not a single procedure but a sustained therapeutic strategy, which may include lifestyle modifications, counseling, and, when appropriate, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life. The goal is to restore hormonal balance and address specific concerns like low energy, reduced libido, mood changes, and loss of muscle mass.
