Does Man-Opause Exist

Do men suffer from ‘Man-Opause’ just like women? Why yes. In men it is called “Andropause”

If you are experiencing low moods, reduced sexual drive, poor concentration and motivation, aching bones, fatigue. Erectile dysfunction to name a few, these are similar symptoms that women go through for female menopause. So men of a certain age can experience similar symptoms in their mid-life.

We all have testosterone, which gives us that libido and energy.  So men your testosterone levels will decline when you reach your mid-40s. This is not to say that all men with go through this. It all depends as well on your health, how fit you are.  If you are obese your testosterone levels will drop by 30 per cent or more. Another illness could be diabetes.

The best form of treatment is to have a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eat healthy, get enough sleep and reduce your stress.

It’s normal to experience a decline in your testosterone levels as you get older. For many men symptoms are manageable.  If symptoms are worrying you, I suggest you speak to your doctor who can help to manage or treat your symptoms. It’s all part of the life cycle of growing older.

If you need to release some stress, why not visit me for a relaxing massage, or social date where we can go for a walk.

Cycling Helps Keep Fit and Better Sex

Now that winter is upon us, I enjoy getting out and going for a bike ride. If you don’t own a bike you can hire one. It’s nice to be outside enjoying the winter sun, fresh air, having fun and so cycling helps keep fit and better sex in the bedroom. 

Research has found regular high intensity cycling for women enjoy a better sexual function compared to women who take it easy and don’t ride at all. But cycling is beneficial for both sexes. Most of us know that sex is a good thing and is overall good for your health. But riding a bike also builds up muscles which helps us to enjoy sex for longer. It also decreases stress levels, reduce anxiety and depression, strengthen bones, improved joint mobility and increased cardiovascular fitness. So what does that this all mean – it all helps with easier sexual arousal and you are more likely to be in the mood to enjoy sex more often.

So get out and enjoy yourself and remember cycling helps keep fit or come join me for a bike ride and lets have some fun. See my services and rates for a social booking.
