When do men enter menopause?

I believe that many middle-aged and elderly friends will still feel a lingering fear when talking about menopause. Because friends who have experienced menopause will know that everything goes wrong during this period, and they will be upset every day, accompanied by symptoms of panic and insomnia, and will also inexplicably want to get angry with their loved ones around them. So when does a man enter menopause? Facing this question raised by everyone, please let friends and I learn about it in the next period of time.

When men are between 45 and 60 years old, their testicular function begins to decline and shrink, and their male hormones decrease, which causes a series of physiological and psychological changes. The main sign of female menopause is menopause, but men do not have the same obvious physiological changes as women, so male menopause is often ignored. However, men in this period need more care!

1. Physiological manifestations

Some people may feel irritable, dizzy, chest tightness, palpitations, shortness of breath, headache, black spots in front of their eyes, and cold limbs.

2. Psychoneural symptoms

Nervousness, irritability, temper, fatigue, feeling of depression, decreased memory, thinking ability and concentration, feeling uneasy or fearful, loneliness and lack of self-confidence.

3. Decreased sexual function

4. Urinary system symptoms

Frequent urination, waiting to urinate, and increased nocturia

5. Skin changes

Prone to various skin diseases and skin itching.

6. Metabolic symptoms

Disordered fat metabolism causes fat accumulation, such as beer belly and atherosclerosis.

★Reference 2: I often hear middle-aged men pointing at their wives and children and saying, "One is menopause, the other is puberty. There's really nothing we can do about it." The tone of their voices makes it seem like men have nothing to worry about. In fact, menopause is not exclusive to women.

1/3 of men experience menopausal symptoms

When men are under 40, they have rosy complexions, well-developed muscles, and are full of masculinity. However, once some men are over 40, their physical condition takes a sharp turn for the worse, with pale complexions, beer bellies, and flabby muscles. If men in their 40s or 50s still experience physical and mental fatigue, unexplained heart attacks, and decreased sexual function, this is the male menopause at work.

In the past, it was believed that men did not have menopause. Because the decline of male testosterone levels is gradual, decreasing by 1%-2% each year, and there is no obvious sign like the "menopause" of women, it is not easy to attract attention. It has only recently entered the field of medical science. The Austrian Urological Association proposed the concept of "male menopause" at the European Andrology Conference in 1994, and it was widely recognized in the medical community. According to statistics, one-third of men aged 40-70 will experience menopausal symptoms.

The above paragraphs have given us a good introduction to when men go through menopause. I believe that friends who have read the above content carefully will have a deeper understanding and more proficient grasp of this question. Of course, I would like to remind everyone that when a friend reaches menopause, not only will he feel uncomfortable, but it will also make people around him feel uncomfortable, so we should find some ways to relieve menopausal symptoms.
