Male menopause or andropause

Is there a male menopause?

Male menopause is often used in the media as shorthand for the symptoms and health effects suffered by men due to an age-related drop in testosterone levels and activity. However, when used about men, the term menopause can be misleading.

For women, it describes the time when their monthly periods stop as oestrogen levels significantly decline, usually between 45 to 55 years of age. 

On the other hand, not all men suffer from a comparable change of life. But men’s hormone levels and balance often go through changes as they age, particularly if they fall into ill health due to problems like obesity, stress and high alcohol intake. This can affect many men with symptoms that are sometimes severe. So in reply to the question, does the male menopause exist?, the answer is yes, it is a real, identifiable health problem.

The good news is that it can be treated successfully and effectively with testosterone replacement therapy.

Is the male menopause just a mid-life crisis?

No, the male menopause is not the same as a mid-life crisis although they may occur at the same age. As clinical psychologist Jean Coleman explains: “You can get a mixture of mid-life crisis and andropause (male menopause) in some men, but mid-life crisis is an existential crisis and an emotional problem.” 

However, Coleman says, this is not to do with hormonal levels and activity, as is the case with what is commonly called the male menopause, which has its own distinctive pattern of andropause symptoms.

Are there other names for the male menopause?

Other common terms used to describe the male menopause and the symptoms and signs that usually come with it include andropause, late onset hypogonadism, male climacteric, low T, man-o-pause and Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome. All these refer to the same condition. The Centre for Men’s Health generally uses the more precise medical term Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome (TDS), as we believe this most accurately describes the condition and its cause.

What are male menopause symptoms?

Male menopause symptoms include:

  • Loss of energy;
  • Low libido (sex drive);
  • Erection problems, especially a loss of morning erections;
  • Depression;
  • Anxiety;
  • Irritability and anger;
  • Night sweating;
  • Hot flushes;
  • Joint pains;
  • Weight gain;
  • Memory loss;
  • Reduced beard growth;
  • Lowered self-confidence;
  • Poor concentration/’brain fog’;
  • Gynaecomastia (‘man boobs’)

In addition to these male menopause symptoms, there is mounting evidence indicating that very low testosterone can be linked to a host of serious diseases in later life and older age. These can include diabetes, osteoporosis (reduced bone mass/brittle bones) and Alzheimer’s disease. There is even research suggesting that Low T levels can make men more vulnerable to the effects of Coronavirus/Covid-19.

How long does male menopause last? At what age does it start?

The male menopause has no set duration, and may come on gradually over a period of months or even years, becoming long-lasting if not treated appropriately, damaging a man’s health and well-being. 

Most men who experience age related testosterone health problems will see male menopause symptoms and signs during their late forties to early fifties, but they can start any time from the age of 30 onwards. So there is no fixed ‘male menopause age’.

Am I going through the male menopause?

If you think you may be going through the male menopause or andropause, why not take our Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome Symptom Review Test to see if you have the symptoms?

It’s a free, easy questionnaire, developed by international experts, which you can take in the privacy of your own home. Just answer a series of questions and we’ll e-mail you your results.

TAKE THE LOW-T SELF TEST

What is testosterone and what is its role in men’s bodies?

Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone and plays a central role in the development of male reproductive tissues such as the testes and prostate as well as of secondary sexual characteristics including increased muscle and bone mass and growth of body hair. Low testosterone levels, and more importantly activity, are the central cause of the male menopause.

Can I be suffering from the male menopause even if my testosterone level seems to be normal?

Yes. Put simply, this is because it is the availability and activity of testosterone that counts more than just its total level. There are many factors that can prevent the testosterone in your blood from being used effectively by your body.

Of the testosterone circulating in the blood 40-50% is weakly bound to a type of globular protein called albumin and another 50-60% is strongly bound to SHBG (sex hormone-binding globulin). Only 1-3% of the hormone is free testosterone. As men age, SHBG levels rise and free testosterone levels fall. This, combined with other factors, can lead to men suffering from symptoms of the male menopause.Schedule a call with an expert

How do our doctors diagnose the male menopause?

Here at the Centre for Men’s Health, any diagnosis of the male menopause is based on a very thorough review of your health and symptoms by one of our team of experts.

The first step is to ask you to take a blood test before your first visit. The doctor will then undertake a detailed review of your testosterone levels and connected hormone measures. He will also look at wider health measures such as prostate inflammation, liver and kidney function, red and white blood cell count and blood fat.

Then, at your appointment in one of our two UK clinics (London or Manchester), the doctor will review your male menopause symptoms, your medical history and will also conduct a physical examination. We also discuss the results of your blood test with you. We can then talk over the findings and put together a plan with you for treatment options for any health problems we find.Chat now for helpBOOK A CALL WITH AN EXPERT

What treatment options are available for the male menopause?

Testosterone replacement therapy at the Centre’s two UK clinics comes in many forms. TRT is usually given as a gel or injection for the first two to six months. It is often needed long-term and can safely be continued in these forms if good relief of male menopause symptoms is maintained or changed to other types if needed.

Is treatment for the male menopause safe?

Testosterone treatment has been in use for over half a century and has a remarkably good safety record over that time, as confirmed by the detailed studies at this centre. However, every effort is made to exclude pre-existing prostatic cancer, by clinical examination, and a sensitive blood test to measure levels of Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA).

To ensure the safety and effectiveness of treatment of the male menopause/testosterone deficiency, it is essential that the results are carefully monitored. Both to establish the diagnosis and to monitor the treatment and relief from symptoms carefully, blood tests and laboratory measurements are required at regular intervals. Following the initial consultation and diagnosis, detailed clinical examinations need to be carried out at 3-6 month intervals.

Will my male menopause treatment relieve my symptoms?

While it may take time for the treatment to become fully effective, patients report often dramatic relief from their male menopause symptoms, with benefits including improved energy levels, and restored vitality and sex life. Often the particular physical symptoms that are the hallmark of the male menopause like hot flushes, mood swings, irritability and poor erections are dramatically lessened by TRT treatment. To find out more about how our patients saw their symptoms improve after they started treatment, see Dan’s story and Ian’s story.

Can I get treatment for the male menopause on the NHS?

You can get TRT on the NHS, but only on a restricted basis. Eligibility for male menopause NHS treatment is mainly determined using a relatively low and inflexible blood level cut off for total testosterone. Men whose blood results fall above this, even if they have all the typical andropause symptoms, are unlikely to be given treatment. This means that many men who could benefit from TRT, based on a more detailed review of their testosterone levels and symptoms, are potentially missing out. 

Want to find out more about the male menopause and TRT? The Centre for Men’s Health’s founder, Professor Malcolm Carruthers, pioneered TRT in the UK. He published several books explaining TRT and why many men can benefit from it.

What is Spiritual Discernment?

What is The Definition of Spiritual Discernment?
By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins May 2, 2024

The fundamental definition for Christian discernment is a decision making process in which an individual makes a discovery that can lead to future action. In the process of Christian spiritual discernment God guides the individual to help them arrive at the best decision.  
Next, I want to inform all of you that the definition of Spiritual Discernment is separating what is worldly from spiritual.  It is distinguishing the spirit of truth from the spirit of error.  This means that if someone is saying something that does not make sense, please look at the Holy Bible for the answers to all of your questions.  We are supposed to decide what the truth is.  One of the things that I actually do is consult with my personal Savior Jesus Christ about what I have heard to see if it lines up in the Bible. 

Further, I want to inform everyone that the Lord Jesus Christ will guide you and lead you in the right path.  It is that when it comes to Spiritual Discernment, we have to understand that there are false prophets out there, and we have to expose them.  I pray to the Lord Jesus Christ for all things.  I also realize that it is not me who is doing the work.  It is the Holy Spirit that is inside of me that is doing all of the work.  I used to hear voices that were not the Holy Spirit for 10 years.  I know that God’s word tells me the truth.  God’s word also talks to me.

Moreover, I want to inform all of you that having Spiritual Discernment is very important.  This means that you really understand what is true from what is actually false.  I am a type of person, who pay close attention to what the Pastor is saying on the pulpit.  I have received total acceptance from God.  Spiritual Discernment comes from the Lord Himself.  I know that this is something that is not acquired overnight.  It takes a lot of prayer, reading the Bible, and becoming a doer of the word of God.

In Addition, possessing the gifts of the Holy Spirit is very important.  It enables all of us to distinguish the full truth that comes from God.  I know that I have been baptized almost 5 years ago.  As soon as I got baptized, I have felt a complete change inside and outside of me.  Spiritual Discernment gives me an opportunity to fully understand God’s message.  I know that I am still a Work in Progress according to God.
I know that I am going to make mistakes in my life.  I truly want to say that I no longer destroy my own Temple by drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana every single day.  I know for me personally, I have been clean and sober for 30 years from marijuana as of January 21, 1990.  I have been clean and sober from alcohol since Wednesday May 2, 1990.  Spiritual Discernment had to really grow on me.  This is simply because I used to let people take full advantage of me.  I used to be a Yes Man.  I used to concur everything that someone says out of their mouth; without fully thinking all about the consequences in my personal life.

Also, I want to say that I have learned a whole lot about real life, and real life situations.  I used to be a person that did not understand what Spiritual Discernment until the very last minute.  This is simply because at one point, I dwelt inside of the world.  I obviously did what others did inside of the world.  Spiritual Discernment gives you a sense of maturity.  It will really make you aware of all things.  What is the definition of awareness?  Awareness is knowledge or perception of a situation or fact. “We need to raise public awareness of the issue” concern about and well-informed interest in a particular situation or development.  “A growing environmental awareness”.
Awareness is the state of knowing something, such as the awareness that the sun comes up every morning. The adjective aware gets turned into a noun when the suffix -ness is added, so awareness is the state of being aware, or having knowledge of something.  Definition of discerning. : showing insight and understanding: discriminating a discerning critic.  There are three different types of awareness. There is prompted awareness: when asked, people tell you they know the organization when picking them off a list. There is unprompted awareness: when asked, people come up with the organization on their own without having to look at a list to say “Oh yeah, I know. “

Finally, I want to say that having discernment is very important to everyone.  This is simply because our job is to know the truth.  We have a job of spreading the Gospel, casting out evil spirits, and to make disciples of everyone.  I have invited people to Church all of the time.  Sometimes, people come, and there are times when they did not come to Church.  I have been very understanding to everyone.  I share the Gospel with everyone.  I share the Gospel online and in my personal life.  What is Spiritual Discernment?  

Forgiveness 490 Times

Is It True That We Have To Forgive Each Person 490 Times?

By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins

        Praise The Lord Everyone!! Praise The Lord!! How are all of you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I have a very important question to ask all of you.  Is it true that we have to forgive each person 490 times?  The answer to this question is yes.  We have to forgive everyone for what each person have done to you.

 I used to have a problem with forgiveness a long time ago.  This is because I used to get abused and neglected as a child as well as an adult.  I want to let everyone know that it is not very easy apologizing and accepting apologies from other people.  I feel good right now because I have learned how to forgive others while attending church as a child.  At first, I used to get upset when others have hurt me.  I used to run away from God.  It is very serious when it comes to forgiveness.  This means that I have to forgive each person living on this earth 490 times.  I literally understand right now what it takes to accept other people.  I meditated on this topic before I decided to type it.

        Next, I am very happy that I am the person that I am right now because I have learned a brand new behavior.  It is called forgiving other people.  The first thing that I had to do is ask God for forgiveness in all of my sins.  I have to ask God to accept me as I am as a human being.  God really loves me.  He literally loves all of us. 

        Further, I had to confess with my mouth to the Lord Jesus and believe it inside of my heart.  I really believe that God had raised Jesus Christ from the dead: You will be saved.  I am just happy that I have learned a new behavior, and it makes the Lord very happy that I am forgiving others, and accepting each other in love. 

I have to realize that I really have to be very careful when it comes to dealing with my own emotions.  I have come to the realization that I am a brand new creation in Christ Jesus.  He will never leave you, nor forsake you.  I am very happy that I have Jesus Christ as my Personal Savior.  The very thing that I am doing is imitating the behavior of Jesus Christ.  I know that it is not going to be an easy journey: However, God is with me!  I also have to give other people credit for molding and shaping my overall behavior.  God works through people.  There have been people that were involved in my life; just to see me do something positive in my life.
