 MALE MENOPAUSE / ANDROPAUSE AND IT’S MANAGEMENT THROUGH AYURVEDA

INTRODUCTION

Andropause is a condition characterized by a reduced level of testosterone with increased age. Although there is no complete cessation of testosterone synthesis, bioavailable testosterone is very low. Unlike allopathic medicines, treatment of andropause through Ayurveda does not have side effects. 

ANDROPAUSE or MALE MENOPAUSE

“Getting old” is not the accurate excuse for the aging male suffering from various symptoms such as insomnia, weight gain and loss of libido. The main culprit, in most cases, reduces the action of the dominating male hormone, testosterone. The concentration of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone gets reduced in between the ages of 35 to 65 years. Significant reduction in the concentration of testosterone leads to andropause. This reduction progresses with age and affects the quality of life in males. The person has mild to moderate mood swings and experiences physiological, psychological, and sexual symptoms. 

Testosterone is the male dominating hormone and is responsible for a wide variety of androgenetic features, including initiation of puberty, increasing muscle mass, and preparing the body for fighting against challenging situations. Testosterone is also responsible for energy and stamina. Although after the age of 30-35 years, the testosterone level starts reducing, the onset of symptoms of andropause appears at the age of around 50. At this age, the testosterone level has reached that critical level which is not enough for the body to perform testosterone-guided functions. 

PHYSIOLOGY OF ANDROPAUSE

The term “male menopause” does not seem correct as there is no cessation of menopause and the synthesis of testosterone for not halted altogether. “Viropause” is also not the correct terminology, as there is little correlation between the loss of virilization and reduced testosterone concentration. Further, many researchers believe that reduced testosterone is not the only reason for andropause. This would be the case; all elderly people would experience the symptoms. But, in reality, it is not so. This indicates that other factors also contribute to generating the symptoms of andropause. These factors may be underlying diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, osteoporosis, obesity, and cardiovascular disorders. Other factors include smoking, intake of alcohol, a sedentary lifestyle, stress, and poor sleeping habits. Androgen decline in agony males (ADAM) may also occur because of psychological stress due to professional life and career growth, commonly known as the mid-life crisis.

Testosterone is present in the body in three forms: Free testosterone, Albumin-bound testosterone, and Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG)-bound Testosterone. Only free and albumin-bound testosterone are bioavailable and available to the body for physiological function. As age increases, on the one hand, the synthesis of testosterone reduces, and on the other hand concentration of SHBG increases, leading to a reduced concentration of bioavailable testosterone.
