At what age does male menopause occur?

I believe everyone knows what menopause is. I believe many people are very familiar with menopause. Irritability, lack of emotions, and a suspicious attitude towards many things are the most obvious characteristics of menopause. Many elderly people in the family have menopausal symptoms. Most of them are women, and menopausal symptoms in men are milder than women. So at what age does menopause occur? Let me introduce it to you today.

The early symptoms of male menopause syndrome usually appear in the mouth, often with burning, dryness, and a foreign body sensation in the mouth. Some people also experience gum congestion and swelling due to the loss of gum mucosa, sometimes accompanied by pain, itching, bleeding and other symptoms. Some people also experience abnormal taste. If not diagnosed and treated in time, symptoms such as palpitations, irritability, suspicion, and memory loss will occur. Therefore, men who enter menopause (usually between 55 and 65 years old) should pay attention to their physical and mental changes and should not ignore them.

Generally, after men reach the age of 50, the function of male hormones (androgen) will gradually decline, especially the secretion of testosterone (testosterone) will decrease. This kind of physical and mental disorders caused by the changes in hormone secretion in the body is the so-called "male menopause". There are many terms that have been used to describe this life stage experienced by men: male menopause, male viropause, male climacteric, male penopause, male lack of sexual desire (andropenia) and male menopause (andropause).

After entering the age of 45-55, various organs in the body also age. Many men can adapt to this slow process, so generally no symptoms or reactions occur. However, there are also a considerable number of men who cannot adapt to this change and will also experience some symptoms. Since these symptoms are also caused by testicular atrophy, decreased function, and decreased sex hormone secretion, they are the same as female menopause, so it can also be called male menopause. Because male gonadal function declines slowly, men's menopausal symptoms appear later, usually between the ages of 55 and 65. Symptoms of male menopause are generally mild and subtle. Common symptoms include nervousness, neurasthenia, fatigue, irritability, agitation, depression, headache, back pain, dizziness, facial fever, palpitations, abnormal sensations, memory loss, difficulty concentrating, and decreased sexual function.

Through the above introduction, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the age of male menopause. In fact, many men enter menopause at different ages, because those who usually drink or smoke a lot often cause menopause to be advanced. Therefore, everyone should try to avoid drinking and smoking.
