Andropause Cognitive Decline

Meaning

The measurable deterioration of cognitive functions, such as memory, executive function, and processing speed, observed in some aging males concurrent with the physiological decline in androgen levels, particularly testosterone. This clinical manifestation is directly linked to the neurobiological impact of hypogonadism, differentiating it from other causes of age-related cognitive change. It represents a significant area of concern in male hormonal health, highlighting the systemic influence of sex steroids on central nervous system integrity.
