As we age, both men and women experience a natural decline in key hormones like testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone. This gradual drop in hormones starts in our 30s and continues into old age. Some of the key signs of hormone decline include:
- Low libido - Both men and women may notice a decreased interest in sex as hormone levels drop. This can put stress on romantic relationships.
- Low energy - Fatigue and lack of motivation are common with declining hormones. Daily tasks seem more difficult.
- Weight gain - With less testosterone and estrogen, the body puts on fat more easily while losing muscle mass. Belly fat in particular accumulates.
- Hot flashes - Dropping estrogen causes hot flashes in both men and women. These sudden feelings of intense heat lead to sweating and flushing.
- Mood changes - Irritability, anxiety, and depression often come along with hormone decline. This can greatly impact mental health and well-being.
- Sleep disturbances - Falling and staying asleep becomes difficult with hormone fluctuations. This leads to daytime drowsiness.
- Hair loss - Testosterone and estrogen help keep hair follicles healthy. As they drop, hair thins and falls out more rapidly.
- Loss of muscle mass - Lower testosterone makes it harder to build and maintain muscle. Physical weakness may occur.
- Cognitive issues - Estrogen supports memory, learning, and focus. As it declines, you may notice cognitive sluggishness.
- Bone loss - Osteoporosis risk increases, leading to fragile bones that fracture easily.
In summary, our critical sex hormones start dropping in midlife. This hormonal shift causes widespread symptoms that impact quality of life. Seeking treatment can greatly help to alleviate these changes.
