During so many years of argument and research. Male menopause is recognized that it exists. Sexual dysfunction, loss of libido, depression and nervousness, lethargy, poor concentration and memory, hot flashes and night sweats, increased irritability, loss of bone density, and muscle weakness etc. This list of symptoms now isn't only discussed in relation to female menopause anymore, but also now applicable to men when their testosterone levels drop below a certain level.

Testosterone is the body hormone produced by cells of testes which functions in the induction and maintenance of male secondary sex characteristics. It is used in infertility, athletic enhancement, erectile dysfunction and libido problems.

Men with low testosterone levels can improve their libido with testosterone treatment. Once a man is diagnosed as having a low testosterone level, the next step is to choose which form of treatment to utilize. As with all medications, benefits must be weighed against the numerous risks. Age is one important factor in making this decision. In men less than fifty years old, the goal is to restore libido and erections. Some of the side benefits include preservation of bone mass, much in the same way estrogen helps prevent osteoporosis in menopausal women. Testosterone also improves strength, physical stamina, and general well-being. It almost sounds like this is the perfect drug. However, testosterone can increase serum cholesterol. It can also increase the growth of the prostate, and if early-stage prostate cancer is present, treatment may stimulate wild growth and the oral form of testosterone is toxic to liver and heart.

The book involves the causes of male menopause, the changes (physical and psychological) due to menopause and the treatments etc. An effective and quick read.
