Conditions
& Types of Treatment
This section describes the most important conditions in ageing men.
The following factors play an important part in various systems.
Firstly there are the hormonal changes that can happen in men. We used to call them the andropause or penopause for the sake of convenience. The current terms are ADAM (Androgen Decline of the Ageing Male), PADAM (Partial Androgen Deficiency of the Ageing Male) or late onset hypogonadism.
Erection problems in their most diverse forms can also be a cause of discomfort for the ageing male. The hardness of the erection can decrease, the duration of the erection can be reduced, Peyronie’s disease can cause a malformation of the penis, there can be a malfunction in seminal discharge, etc.
Benign prostate hypertrophy and prostate cancer are also common and widely known problems in ageing men.
The Ageing Male Clinic also pays attention to other symptoms, such as depression, pain problems, memory problems, bone quality, obesity, physical capacity, etc.
All these conditions are looked into based on very specific risk factors.
In this section’s chapters you will find more information about the most common conditions.
