   Despite the few who shout about mid life crises, no.

      Would you be surprised if it were true?

   Yes, I honestly believe we go through a time in our lives (not physical) but mentally where we sit back and think, Wow, I'm getting old. This is why we see older men trying to be young again. I do believe in mid life crisis. When you see a 55 year old man driving a new convertible, what pops into your head?

      Everyone makes that assumption. Most young men can't afford nice cars. Chances are if you are older and you've worked hard enough and earned a lot of money, then you're not going to settle for a small little hatchback.

      Then why do you see so many younger men driving convertibles? A lot more than older men driving sedans. LOL

   Thats something I never herd of, but we do trend some kind of attribute but nothing of the same. We do have a moment when we share and be compulsive but no I believe we have no andropause. LOL!

      Funny now, but not when you're going through it. Try some progesterone cream, all natural and derived from wild yam. I hear black cohosh also helps.

   Andropause is very real, and [physical as well as it is in menopause for women. Men do have a decline in testosterone, as well as women do with estrogen. No it's not just mental, and can be just as bad for them as it is for women. Wild yam, or progesterone cream can be as helpful for men as it is to women. It helps to keep hormone levels balanced, it does not overstimulate any of the hormones, it only levels it. Flax seed oil, taken in capsule form, 2000mg a day, will also help to balance hormone levels in any stage, and works for both male, and female. An awesome scientific discovery. I've been through every stage, from pms, to peri, to post menopause, and it works. I've also taken prescription meds as well, they have too many side effects, the naturals do not, nor do they cause cancer.

      I agree with you, it is a known fact that men go through andropause, what is very interesting, is the fact that many people are not aware of it. Thanks for the tip on Flax seed oil,and your comment.
