I see many posts ridiculing mature women on this forum. Some of these middle-aged women are going through or have gone through menopause. However, men go through a similar transition:

"There is a basic set of identifiable symptoms which signal changes in hormones. These symptoms include some of the same symptoms women experience:

Diminished sexual drive
Urinary changes
Lack of energy
Decrease in strength and/or endurance
Lost height, back pain
Decreased “enjoyment of life”
Irritability, anger, and grumpiness
Depression or withdrawn
Erections less strong
Deterioration in sports ability
Falling asleep after dinner
Decreased work performance
Joint aches and stiffness of the hands
Premature aging
Changes in hair growth and skin quality
Loss of physical fitness, weight gain, and “beer” bellies
Hot flashes
Increased anxiety
Loss of self esteem
Decreased memory and/or concentration"

Why are only menopausal women ridiculed? Why not menopausal men too?
Here is tons more info:

According to one poster – who has "been there" himself, andropause IS of concern. If it weren't of concern to men then why would men seek to treat the symptoms? Verstehen?

i'm just wondering if they would alter any of these and, if so, how:

mood
sex drive
weight/fat gain or muscle loss, etc
breast growth??
body hair/hair growth
abnormal hormonal levels of any sort
appetite
"monthly cycle"

these are mostly what i'm concerned about. i don't know many of the benefits to taking estrogen, but overall, are they a good idea or.. not so much?

hello ppl

My partner is in his mid 20s n he's jus losing hair.. his hairs thinning a lot and im scared he'll be going bald soon!!

he says its a genetic thing but its not really.. He's been using these natural figaro medications n shampoos n stuff that are supposed to be helping hair growth but i dont see a difference..

My hair is also thinning at the front.. but its not as serious as his.. but still id like a fuller head of hair!! and so is my mum by the way.. she's got so much less hair than she did when she was younger.. just wondering if anybody knows of any natural remedy or things we can do @ home to make all this hair grow back!
plz only suggest if ur sure.. we dont wanna go balder than we already are.. hahaha

Thanks
He's already been to the doctor and done some tests and she said there's nothing showing in the tests and he just has to live with it!
