Male Menopause

It seems women don't have the market cornered anymore when it comes to the hot flashes, mood swings and other symptoms of menopause.

It's called male menopause, and up to 25 percent of men will experience it. It comes with age, and lower levels of testosterone, which usually starts declining around age 40. Treatment is available for male menopause, but it's not for everyone. Testosterone therapy can be really pricey and has it's risks. And it's not always the hormones that are to blame, stress and depression can have the same effect and need to be treated individually.
