Sexual activity is impacted by the several issues that men face at some point of time in their lives. Like women, men also do not have any certainty on age limit for sex. Getting an erection takes time among older men and face premature ejaculation. The physical changes noticed in sexual arousal are because of changes in hormone level.

With age, there is decrease in hormones among men. At times, Andropause is known as AMS (aging male syndrome or ‘male menopause’, experiencing between 35 – 70 years, however, mostly during early 50s.
Hormone level decline is gradual when compared to estrogen level’s rapid fall, which marks women’s menopause onset. Men at 30 produce less testosterone, even though the levels may vary, while few 70 years old may have testosterone levels matching those in their 30s. Physical effects can be noticed with gradual hormone level decline. Some Andropause symptoms are:
- Reduced sex drive
- Lack in energy
- Decreasing endurance and strength
- Mood swings
- Less strong erections
Potential risks can be seen with hormone replacement therapy, developing prostrate cancers.
Reduced Desire
