Male Hormones
Traditionally only women were considered when the decrease of hormones in the body brought about by advancing age resulted in low libido, decrease of muscle mass, hair loss
What man pictures himself as a bald, wrinkled, weakling? The reason that men are not usually considered for hormone replacement is because they remain fertile long past the age when women stop producing babies.
Male bodies begin to decrease hormone production in when the body ages beyond the age of 30. In some it is more pronounced than others. As age increases, the production of hormones dwindles on a gradient. Not only physical appearance is affected, but also physical and mental well being.
Men can be helped just as much as women by hormone replacement therapy. Feeling youthful and looking younger is significant to both sexes.
Most people think of testosterone as THE male hormone – obviously it would be helpful to replace any dwindling supply of that hormone. But there are other hormones important to maintaining a youthful appearance in men. Growth hormone, estrogen, progesterone, thyroid hormones and others can be important to men as well.
One important thing to remember if you are interested in hormone replacement is to make sure that the hormones used to replace the lost hormones must be bioidentical. That means that the hormones must be the same as the ones the body produces, not a synthetic. The first step in hormone replacement is medical testing to determine which hormones need to be replaced and in what amount. Then a doctor will prescribe replacements.
Exercise and diet play a large role in maintaining youthfulness, but they will not be nearly as effective as when they are combined with hormone replacement. A myriad of other remedies have been marketed throughout history, from hair replacement to Dr. Hustler’s Medicine Show tonic. (The tonic was probably full of cocaine or alcohol or both – so it may have made some feel youthful for a short time.)
Don’t just worry about your lost youth. Actively do something to halt or reverse the effects of age. If you approach the symptoms with the idea of finding out what causes the problem and remedying the cause, you will get lifetime results. And you can skip the tonic and the goat extract.
