Our many services at SATS Urgent Care include some of the top age-defying and appearance-enhancing technologies available today. As we grow older one of the many challenges we face is a decrease in hormone production in the body. In women menopause is the cessation of the hormones estrogen, progesterone and even testosterone. This occurs around age 45 to 50 years old. In men it is called andropause and is the cessation of testosterone production. It occurs in a much wider range between 40 and 60 years old.
The most common symptoms of menopause are night sweats, depression and hot flashes. Additional signs are weight gain, earlier death and dementia. Andropause results in loss of muscle mass, weight gain, loss of the youthful shape of mass in the shoulders, larger abdomen and trunk size, moodiness, depression, loss of energy and sex drive. Both andropause and menopause contribute to mental decline, increased body fat, cardiovascular disease and cancer mortality.
