Andropause and Physical Decline

Meaning

Andropause and Physical Decline describes the clinical correlation between the gradual, age-related reduction in bioavailable testosterone, often termed late-onset hypogonadism, and the progressive deterioration of male physical function. This hormonal shift is frequently associated with a cluster of symptoms encompassing diminished muscle mass, known as sarcopenia, reduced bone mineral density, and a significant decrease in physical energy and endurance. It represents a complex, multifactorial decline in male physiological function intrinsically linked to endocrine changes.
