What is an irritated male syndrome?
Irritable male syndrome (IMS) is the result of low testosterone levels that can be caused by age, stress, unhealthy diet and some medicines and diseases. IMS, often referred to as menopause of men or andropause, has very similar symptoms as menopause of women, including reduced libido, heat pitfalls and emotional problems. IMS treatment may include testosterone substitution therapy and lifestyle changes. While testosterone production can remain normal until late, it gradually begins to reduce between 35 and 45 years. In some men, the decrease in this hormone happens so slowly that they do not experience any symptoms. For others, the change is sufficiently drastic to cause noticeable changes in behavior and overall well -being, resulting in an irritated male syndrome. Stress, along with foods such as refined starches, oily meat, lack of vegetables and a large amount of alcohol in the diet, can reduce testosterone production. Medicines such as antidepressants,Transkvilizers and drugs used to treat incontinence, hypertension, HIV/AIDS and other immune disorders, can reduce testosterone production and also cause irritated male syndrome.
The most common symptoms of this disorder include excessive anger, mood swings, irritability and anxiety. It is also typical of men to avoid loved ones, especially to their husband and restrict social interactions more than usual. Physical symptoms such as lower back pain, frequent headaches and even hot flashes, common part of female menopause may be present. Because testosterone usually decreases gradually, these symptoms may not seem overnight; In some cases, they may take years to develop. Men who are more sensitive to testosterone fluctuations can experience the form of an irritated male syndrome known as male PM, in which symptoms are more pronounced at certain times of the day or ROku.
The treatment of irritated male syndrome varies. For example, the use of testosterone substitution therapy may be controversial. This type of treatment may not work for many individuals and can significantly increase the risk of prostate cancer. Therefore, lifestyle changes are usually tested before hormonal therapy.
Eating healthy diet is one of the most recommended ways to increase testosterone levels. Foods such as all grains, lean meat and vegetables have been shown to increase production and reduce the frequency of decrease in testosterone levels during the day, reducing or eliminating the symptoms of this syndrome. Regular exercise and limiting alcohol intake can also help combat the irritated male syndrome.
