Are You a ‘Grumpy Old Man’? – How Hormone Optimisation Therapy Can Help Change Your Life!

Anecdotally, the middle-aged male is often described as the ‘grumpy old man’; with people describing a change in their partner, friend or loved one from once a fun-loving individual to someone who is tired and depressed once they surpass 40 years of age. However, this stereotype actually has its roots in the male andropause (often called the male menopause). Just as women have hormonal changes with age, men do too when their androgen (male sex hormones) levels drop. The male andropause includes physical and emotional changes that correspond to a decline in male hormone levels with age.
