JAKARTA - The decrease in hormones is not only experienced by women before the menopause, but also in men. The process of decreasing hormones in men is known as andropause.

According to well-known sexologist dr. Boyke Dian Nugraha, the hormone testosterone in men began to decline faster than many had thought. Based on research, this hormone began to decline at the age of 33 '34 years. Every year, testosterone levels decrease by about 0.5'1 percent.

The testosterone hormone has an important role in shaping masculine characteristics in men, including muscle strength, skin health, the spirit of life, and sexual arousal. When these hormones begin to decline, physical and emotional changes can occur slowly without realizing it

Here are 6 early signs of a decrease in the hormone testosterone in men, according to dr. Boyke, as reported by dr. Boyke's YouTube channel.

1. Easy Tired And Easy Tired

One of the first symptoms that often appear is energy decrease. Many men begin to feel the body is tired faster, even though the activities carried out are not too heavy. This happens because testosterone plays a role in metabolism and endurance.

2. Lower Sexual Passion

Testosteron also plays an important role in sexual impetus. Men with declining testosterone levels usually experience a decrease in sexual arousal and desire, which has an impact on intimate relationships.

3. Mood Easily Change And Get Stressed Quickly

In addition to being physical, testosterone also plays a role in emotional stability. Men with low hormone levels tend to be more easily offended, stressed, or lose motivation for no apparent reason.

4. Weakened Muscles and Body Loss Of Shape

Testosteron supports muscle growth and strength. When hormone levels decrease, muscle mass decreases, the body appears to be more slack, and stamina decreases. This is often felt by men in their 30s who rarely exercise.

5. Spirit of life and Motivation Decrease

These hormones also affect the spirit of life and self-confidence. A decrease in testosterone can make men lose the urge to achieve something, both in work and in everyday life.

6. Disruption of Concentration and Decision Making

Testosteron plays a role in cognitive functions. The decline in hormones can cause concentration to decrease, strategic thinking skills are disrupted, and the decision-making process becomes more difficult.

Awareness of these symptoms is important so that men can take preventive measures and maintain the quality of life from an early age.
