Male Menopause and How It Can Affect Your Health

I just setup this new site on male menopause because I recently saw on television that it seems to be occurring more lately, even in younger men. This condition, sometimes called andropause, normally occurs as men get older and there testosterone levels drop. Following is an excerpt from my site.

Male menopause? 'Is there such thing?' I hear you say. The answer is simply yes, there is indeed a phenomenon called male menopause and this site is dedicated to finding the facts and figures about this little talked about condition that affects men worldwide.
Everyone knows that women go through menopause once they hit the middle age mark. They experience symptoms such as hot flashes, hormonal changes, depression and irritability.
There is another name for male menopause - andropause. Andropause is used to replace the word menopause because many people believe that men are not going through the same changes as women do, therefore it should not be called menopause. As mentioned, male menopause is different from female menopause. In women, the sex hormones completely reduce and eventually disappear which then leads to loss of fertility.
