Men's Health: Time to Take Charge!
In today’s fast-paced world, men often neglect their health, brushing off unusual symptoms or avoiding doctor visits altogether. No wonder women tend to live longer! As the saying goes, prevention and early detection are always better than ignorance and late diagnosis.
The good news? A simple yearly consultation with your doctor can provide long-term health benefits. Small lifestyle changes can make a big difference—keeping your tummy girth in check, cutting out bad habits like smoking and excessive alcohol intake, and reducing junk food consumption are great places to start.
Simple Steps to Better Health:
✅ Eat healthier, avoid processed and high-glycemic foods.
✅ Reduce screen time and increase physical activity.
✅ Get outdoors—fresh air is free!
✅ Protect your skin from the sun (yes, men can get skin cancer too!).
✅ Get regular screenings for cholesterol, blood pressure, sugar levels, prostate health, and other key indicators.

Oestrogen Dominance in Men
Hormones work in harmony to keep us feeling our best. While oestrogen is known as a female hormone, men have it too—just in smaller amounts. When testosterone (the male hormone) is too low or oestrogen is too high, an imbalance occurs, leading to symptoms such as:
🔸 Low sperm count and infertility
🔸 Enlarged breasts (gynaecomastia)
🔸 Erectile dysfunction
A proper consultation and blood test are crucial for diagnosing this condition. The good news? Many cases can be managed with simple lifestyle changes. Once your hormones are in balance, you’ll feel like your best self again!

Male Menopause (Andropause): More Common Than You Think
Unlike female menopause, not all men go through andropause, but for those who do, the symptoms can be life-changing. Sadly, many men dismiss their struggles as just a “part of aging” and never seek help. Andropause can affect mental, emotional, and physical health, with symptoms such as:
⚠️ Fatigue and low energy
⚠️ Mood swings, depression, anxiety
⚠️ Poor sleep quality
⚠️ Weight gain and increased body fat
⚠️ Loss of muscle mass and body hair
⚠️ Erectile dysfunction and reduced libido
⚠️ Decreased testicular size
⚠️ Hot flashes (yes, men can get them too!)
Andropause symptoms arise when testosterone concentration is below the required level to maintain normal body function. According to the Mayo Clinic, testosterone declines at 1% per year after men turn 30. If you suspect yourself to have some of these issues, please feel free to make an appointment. A good consultation is a good way to start. Below are some of the treatment options:
✅ Health diet
✅ Quality rest
✅ Quality exercise – steady pace endurance (running, cycling, swimming), strength (weight lifting), high intensity interval (calisthenics, cross fit) and flexibility (yoga, pilates, traditional stretching)
✅ Stress management – yoga, meditation, singing, playing musical instrument, gardening
✅ Testosterone replacement therapy
Science allows us to regain traction on our lives.
When we feel good, everything else improves—including our risk for high blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes.
