Who Needs Hormone Replacement?  Both men and women experience hormone imbalance due to aging as well as many other factors.

Men have hormone decline due to aging and other influences.  The male version of menopause is called andropause.  This can begin as early as the 30s but is more common in late 40s and 50s and continues throughout life.  Not all men experience this but most do and have some of the following symptoms

  • Diminished sexual desire and erectile quality. In particular, a decrease in nocturnal erections is a significant sign of decreased androgens. with a decrease in intellectual activity, fatigue, depression, anger, and poor spatial orientation.
  • Mood changes. This can be also associated with a decrease in intellectual activity, fatigue, depression, anger, and poor spatial orientation.
  • A decrease in lean body mass, along with decreases in muscle mass and strength.
  • A decrease in body hair.
  • A decrease in bone density, resulting in osteoporosis. Osteoporosis can often lead to increased incidence of bone fractures and breaks.
  • An increase in fat surrounding the internal organs.

    • Somatopause: This is cause by a decrease in Growth Hormone. Growth hormone production decreases after puberty at a rate of approximately 14% every 10 years.  This occurs equally in men and women.  Some of the symptons are:

    • Weight-gain, especially around the middle
    • Loss of bone density
    • Declining energy and sex drive
    • Increase in bad cholesterol
    • Decrease in good cholesterol
    • Skin begins to wrinkle

    Men tend to be much more cavalier about their health than women. They often ignore warning signs of disease and may have to be dragged to a doctor's office by a concerned family member. It's important for men to be more proactive about their health. After all, their expected lifespan is shorter than women's, and they're at greater risk of heart disease and a number of other health problems.

    When it comes to quintessential male problems, conventional physicians have a one-track mind. Men with prostate enlargement (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH), for example, are given two choices: drugs or surgery. Prostate drugs may relieve symptoms, but they have significant side effects, including decreased libido and impotence in some men. Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), a surgical procedure that involves cutting away abnormal prostate tissue, also improves symptoms but does nothing to stop prostate growth and future problems.

    At Saylor Wellness, we do not shun all conventional therapies but work to compliment them. Viagra and other drugs prescribed for erectile dysfunction really do work and, for most men, have minimal side effects. However, erectile problems can also be addressed by safer, natural therapies that improve multiple aspect of health, including flagging energy, muscle loss, diminished sex drive, and mood and memory difficulties. For all of these conditions and more, at Saylor Wellness we offer several unique natural treatment options.

    Treat Root Causes of Sexual Dysfunction
    You can't expect to have topnotch sexual function if you have poor overall health.     Hypertension, cardiovascular disease, uncontrolled diabetes, and other disorders involving impaired circulation are commonly linked with sexual dysfunction. That's because optimal blood flow is required to produce erections. Other conditions that can affect interest in sex and the ability to act on that interest include anxiety, depression, hormonal imbalances, chronic pain, and neurological problems. Once these health issues are tackled with our comprehensive treatment programs, desire and function often return.

    At the Saylor Wellness Center    , Dr. Saylor will evaluate your current drug regimen. An astounding number of prescription drugs—more than 130 in all—interfere with sexual function. These drugs include antidepressants and other psychotropic medications, some blood pressure–lowering drugs (especially beta blockers), stimulants, narcotics, antihistamines, sleeping pills, and peptic ulcer and heart meds. Replacing these with safe, natural alternatives will go a long ways toward restoring optimal function.

    Testosterone Replacement Therapy
    Natural Testosterone replacement is a very popular therapy among our male patients at the Saylor Wellness. Testosterone production tapers off throughout adulthood, and drops in this crucial hormone are linked not only with sexual problems but also with increased risk of obesity, loss of muscle and bone mass, heart disease, diabetes, and even premature death. Naturally increasing testosterone is an amazing libido lifter—if lack of sexual interest is your problem, it's an almost guaranteed fix. Testosterone also improves erectile function for many men. Used appropriately, this underappreciated hormone can be increased safely and exceptionally effective.

    Nutritional Supplements for Prostate Enlargement
    If you're a male over age 55, you probably know the drill: nighttime visits to the bathroom, a sense of urgency, trouble getting started, dribbling, and other symptoms of an enlarged prostate. Dr. Saylor will prescribe a clinically tested nutritional supplement regimen that has been demonstrated to effectively reduce symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) without adverse side effects.

    Prostate Cancer
    At the Saylor Wellness Center, we offer our patients who have cancer therapies, nutritional supplement regimens that boost the immune system, lower PSA, and support overall health.

    Lifestyle

    Harvard researchers have found that men who eat a good diet, exercise regularly, and maintain their optimal weight are able to delay age-associated erectile dysfunction by about 10 years! Among the bad habits that contribute to sexual problems are drinking too much alcohol, overeating (obesity), and smoking—which impairs erectile function even in younger men. Dr. Saylor and program consultants will advise you as to a proper diet, along with instructions on how to stay on track.

    Exercise is essential for all aspects of health, and our consultants will create a workout regimen specifically tailored to your needs. Better yet, you'll learn how to incorporate exercise into your long-term plan for optimal health.
