Men Menopause: Here’s What You Need To Know About It – News18

Andropause, sometimes known as “male menopause,” is a natural but substantial hormonal shift that occurs in males as they age, typically between the ages of 40 and 65. Andropause, unlike menopause, is characterized by a steady reduction in testosterone levels, which results in a variety of physical and emotional changes.

Dr Mukesh Batra, Padma Shri Recipient, Founder and Chairman, Dr Batra’s Group of Companies, “Andropause symptoms can include weariness, decreased muscle mass, decreased libido, mood changes, irritability, and sleep difficulties. These changes can have a substantial impact on a man’s general well-being, relationships, and quality of life.”

Homeopathy has a holistic approach to treating the symptoms of andropause. It emphasizes tailored treatment, taking into account a person’s unique physical and emotional traits. “Homeopathic treatments are designed to promote the body’s inherent healing processes, restoring hormonal balance and alleviating symptoms,” adds Dr Batra.

Dr Batra explains commonly used homeopathic remedies for andropause that include:

1. Kali p 6x, 2 tablets twice daily can be taken for symptoms such as irritability , mood changes and sleeplessness due to andropause.
2. Lycopodium 30, 2 doses can be taken for loss of libido, erectile dysfunction due to andropause.

In addition to these remedies, homeopaths personalize treatment plans based on the individual’s complete health picture.

However, for effective evaluation and treatment, it is critical to visit a skilled homeopathic practitioner. Homeopathic medications are supplemented by lifestyle changes including regular exercise, a balanced diet, stress management, and appropriate sleep, which promote overall well-being during andropause.

Andropause is a normal stage of life, and with the appropriate approach, including homeopathic intervention, men can manage this transition with more vigor and health.
