Do men have a menopause?

Patient's question:

Today I heard my husband talk about men also having a midlife crisis. I'm a bit skeptical. Do men have a midlife crisis?

Doctor's answer:

Males also have a menopause. Whether male or female, both experience menopause. As age increases, the excretion level of male androgens decreases, and gonadal function declines. When the androgen level rises to a certain extent, many physical and psychological symptoms reappear, which is what is known as male menopause. However, the symptoms are not as pronounced as in women. Finally, I wish you a speedy recovery.
