Pathways to Natural Health July 2022 Newsletter: Men’s Health

As we enter the month of July, we’d like to discuss Men’s Health.
While Pathways to Natural Health is well-known for supporting women through menopause, our hormone support does not stop there; we are also here to help support testosterone levels in aging men!

Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone; as men age, testosterone levels decrease. The physical change that occurs as testosterone decreases is referred to as Andropause. Like menopause, andropause can result in several symptoms as hormone levels become unbalanced. Some of these symptoms include decreased sexual drive, changes in bladder function, and sleep disturbances to name a few.

In addition to andropause, prostate function is another aspect of men’s health that changes with age. Prostate cancer is the MOST common cancer in men in the U.S., with about 1 in 8 men being diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime. Thus, the doctors at Pathways to Natural Health recommend early screening along with healthy diet and lifestyle changes.

Do you or your partner experience any symptoms of andropause? Looking to figure out your risk for prostate cancer? We are here to help! Give our office a call to schedule with one of our expert doctors today!
